Add progress indicator to your apps.

This have annoyed me about loads of native apps for years. There are no progress indicators or spinners in most apps. It used to be better when iOS had a global spinner in the top back in the day.
Things may have been instant when the feature was made, but it might take longer for some users; either because of older hardware, slower connections or way more data; or even if they’re located far from where your cloud infrastructure is located.
We’ve done this in web apps since like forever. Show that something is happened. It could be a spinner or even just disabling the button when it is clicked.
