So, when you delete a screenshot on Nothing OS, it currently just sort of slides away as if it was swiped. While there is a movement, it doesn’t really feel like a “deletion.” It often leaves me second-guessing whether it’s actually gone, making me tap the delete button a few extra times just to be sure. It lacks that satisfying visual confirmation you’d expect from a clear-cut delete action.
Because of this, I’ve been playing around with a concept for a more definitive screenshot delete animation. My goal is to make the process feel much more responsive and give us that clear confirmation we’re currently missing.

Nothing special, really. I just wanted to make it fluid and a little fun by using those serrations on the delete button.
What are your thoughts on this? Does the current “slide away” motion feel sufficient to you, or would you prefer a more explicit delete animation too?
