@usmantariq96 I tested this on a pixel 6 pro, and my delay isn't as slow as in your video. I agree there is a 0.5 second delay, and not as quick as web, but I wonder if hardware matters here?

assigning @Christinadobrzyn to watch over this while I am OOO!

I am not sure, tested it on Realme 3.

Hey, it seems we don’t have your contributor details yet! You'll only have to do this once, and this is how we'll hire you on Upwork.
Please follow these steps:

1. Get the email address used to login to your Expensify account. If you don't already have an Expensify account, create one here. If you have multiple accounts (e.g. one for testing), please use your main account email.
2. Get the link to your Upwork profile. It's necessary because we only pay via Upwork. You can access it by logging in, and then clicking on your name. It'll look like this. If you don't already have an account, sign up for one here.
3. Copy the format below and paste it in a comment on this issue. Replace the placeholder text with your actual details.

I can replicate this in all our platforms some of the platforms have less of a delay than others (from what I can generally tell). I wonder if this is an expected behaviour. Asking the team here - 291788

Puneet mentioned this might be part of a bigger API command update. Not sure if this should be closed in favour of a different GH

@NicMendonca, @Christinadobrzyn Uh oh! This issue is overdue by 2 days. Don't forget to update your issues!

Based on this convo - https://expensify.slack.com/archives/C049HHMV9SM/p1681225595834389?thread_ts=1680610152.510499&cid=C049HHMV9SM

Testing this offline has the same delayed behaviour when creating a workspace. So going to add the external label for some help on this.
