Button onPress gets delayed by animation

[RodPin]

I think the animation is postponing the onPress. Im doing a simple alert and it takes like 0.5 second for the alert appear before i click the button.Is there a way to make it quicker?why is it happening?your button on expo seems quicker

here is a gif of what's happening

The onPress event is dispached when you release the button. Don't know why in your gif the button is released so late
