Description

While the app does work on ARM64 devices via the system emulation, it takes a huge toll on app startup and doesn't capture what the arm64 experience could be.

Research direction

The issue does not name a file, test, or build entry point. Start by locating the app's platform build configuration and existing architecture targets, then determine how ARM64 builds are produced and verified. Done means the app has a native ARM64 build that no longer relies on system emulation.
