Description

Current behavior

The swipe animation is too fast.

*NOTE: the expo is provided since it is required, but it works as expected on expo based apps, native one is the one that is too fast.

Expected behavior

The swipe animation to behave the same as in v5, smooth.

Research direction

Start with the linked Snack reproduction and the native Android implementation used by @react-navigation/material-top-tabs and @react-navigation/stack. Compare the v6 swipe behavior with v5, focusing on the listed React Native, react-native-reanimated, react-native-tab-view, and react-native-pager-view versions. Done means the native Android swipe animation feels smooth and matches v5 without regressing the working Expo behavior.
