A UI motion audit evaluates where animations should run and how they should feel across screen transitions, hover states, and interactive feedback. It applies expert designer perspectives through a structured workflow to generate an actionable audit report.

Evaluating animation consistency involves applying multiple expert designer perspectives, such as restraint, production polish, and playful experimentation, to review your motion designs. This ensures your UI motion remains purposeful and consistent across different application contexts.

Yes, you can check accessibility and performance during a motion design review. The audit workflow includes reference-driven checks for accessibility, performance, and optical alignment across common UI patterns to ensure motion is inclusive and efficient.

You apply these perspectives by using Emil Kowalski's restraint, Jakub Krehel's production polish, and Jhey Tompkins' playful experimentation to review interactive feedback. This multi-perspective approach helps identify where animations should trigger and how they should feel to users.

Yes, the motion audit workflow produces actionable audit reports that guide design decisions, style guides, and implementation notes. It follows a structured step-based process covering reconnaissance and per-designer perspectives to deliver comprehensive guidance.
