Mobile Touch

Q: Why use Mobile Touch on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Mobile Touch is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

Q: How do I install Mobile Touch in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/dylantarre/animation-principles/tree/main/skills/01-by-domain/mobile-touch. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Q: Which AI models can use Mobile Touch?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

Q: How many AI models can I use with Mobile Touch?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Mobile Touch with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Q: Is the Mobile Touch AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by dylantarre under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

Q: What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

Q: How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source
Published by dylantarre on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Mobile Touch AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/dylantarre/animation-principles.git /tmp/animation-principles
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/animation-principles/skills/01-by-domain/mobile-touch .claude/skills/mobile-touch

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Mobile Touch in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Mobile Touch on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Mobile Touch is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Mobile Touch Animation

Apply Disney's 12 animation principles to mobile gestures, haptics, and native app motion.

Quick Reference

Principle	Mobile Implementation
Squash & Stretch	Rubber-banding, bounce on scroll limits
Anticipation	Peek before reveal, long-press preview
Staging	Sheet presentations, focus states
Straight Ahead / Pose to Pose	Gesture-driven vs preset transitions
Follow Through / Overlapping	Momentum scrolling, trailing elements
Slow In / Slow Out	iOS spring animations, Material easing
Arc	Swipe-to-dismiss curves, card throws
Secondary Action	Haptic pulse with visual feedback
Timing	Touch response <100ms, transitions 250-350ms
Exaggeration	Bounce amplitude, haptic intensity
Solid Drawing	Respect safe areas, consistent anchors
Appeal	60fps minimum, gesture continuity

Principle Applications

Squash & Stretch: Implement rubber-band effect at scroll boundaries. Pull-to-refresh should stretch content naturally. Buttons compress on touch.

Anticipation: Long-press shows preview before full action. Drag threshold provides visual hint before item lifts. Swipe shows edge of destination content.

Staging: Use sheet presentations to maintain context. Dim and scale background during modal focus. Hero transitions connect views meaningfully.

Straight Ahead vs Pose to Pose: Gesture-following animations (drag, pinch) are straight ahead—driven by touch input. System transitions (push, present) are pose to pose—predefined keyframes.

Follow Through & Overlapping: Content continues moving after finger lifts (momentum). Navigation bar elements animate slightly after main content. Lists items settle with stagger.

Slow In / Slow Out: iOS uses spring physics—configure mass, stiffness, damping. Android Material uses standard easing: FastOutSlowIn. Never use linear for user-initiated motion.

Arc: Thrown cards follow parabolic arcs. Swipe-to-dismiss curves based on velocity vector. FAB expand/collapse follows natural arc path.

Secondary Action: Pair haptic feedback with visual response. Button ripple accompanies press. Success checkmark triggers light haptic.

Timing: Touch acknowledgment: <100ms. Quick actions: 150-250ms. View transitions: 250-350ms. Complex animations: 350-500ms. Haptic should sync precisely with visual.

Exaggeration: Pull-to-refresh stretches beyond natural—makes feedback clear. Error shake is pronounced. Success animations celebrate appropriately.

Solid Drawing: Respect device safe areas during animation. Maintain consistent transform origins. Account for notch/dynamic island in motion paths.

Appeal: Minimum 60fps, target 120fps on ProMotion displays. Gesture-driven animation must feel connected to finger. Interruptible animations essential.

Platform Patterns

iOS

swift
// Spring animation with follow-through
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.5,
               delay: 0,
               usingSpringWithDamping: 0.7,
               initialSpringVelocity: 0.5,
               options: .curveEaseOut)

// Haptic pairing
let feedback = UIImpactFeedbackGenerator(style: .medium)
feedback.impactOccurred()

Android

kotlin
// Material spring animation
SpringAnimation(view, DynamicAnimation.TRANSLATION_Y)
    .setSpring(SpringForce()
        .setStiffness(SpringForce.STIFFNESS_MEDIUM)
        .setDampingRatio(SpringForce.DAMPING_RATIO_MEDIUM_BOUNCY))
    .start()

Haptic Guidelines

Action	iOS	Android
Selection	`.selection`	`EFFECT_TICK`
Success	`.success`	`EFFECT_CLICK`
Warning	`.warning`	`EFFECT_DOUBLE_CLICK`
Error	`.error`	`EFFECT_HEAVY_CLICK`

Haptics are secondary action—always pair with visual confirmation.
