Circles

The core Circles path was verified on physical Android

What was verified on July 14: the core Circles path passed a signed Android release-build check on a physical Pixel 9 with a local Go backend.

Why it matters

On July 14, the core Circles path was checked in a signed, non-debuggable Android release build on a physical Pixel 9. The check covered entry from Feed and Profile plus owner, invited, member, non-member, and pending-request states.

Rapid repeated taps exposed a request-cancellation defect: after the first result, the second tap could open the keyboard. After the fix and rebuild, the request was cancelled once, the keyboard stayed closed, and the viewport did not jump.

The pass also covered 200% text, disabled system animations, and named Circle actions in the TalkBack runtime tree. A complete human-listened TalkBack order has not been verified yet.

This result applies to the signed Android release path with a local Go backend. It does not verify the whole app, iOS, or external server infrastructure.
