On iOS, the webview is certainly fast enough - no lag or stuttering in scrolling or touch events - but I've heard Android and Windows Phone still leave a lot to be desired. I haven't personally dug in to either yet, though.

css transitions are hardware accelerated on mobile safari and android chrome but not on the standard android browser. So animations are terrible on 99% of android phones. No idea about Windows Phone.

Yep, so you just switch them off completely for Android devices with code like

$(document).bind("mobileinit", function () { //apply overrides here if (navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Android") != -1) { $.mobile.defaultPageTransition = 'none'; $.mobile.defaultDialogTransition = 'none'; });
