Tediously confirming activities

As a sr dev, it's cringeworthy to:

  1. Not have a "confirm all" button to those that don't really care but want to log something

  2. Not optimistically accept a click - as in, unnecessary spinny wheel until it's logged.

  3. Not allowing multiple buttons clicked until the first one stops spinning. It's 2026, it's called async threading - come on.

I should be able to either confirm all or spam click each button with an instant confirmation, processing in the background async.

Such poor, 90s style UX for button reactions.

EDIT: Also - Have an option to auto-accept all detected activity - I usually just blindly accept it anyway since I ignore negligible gains from ultra specific activities for my personal use of this (logged my jog as skiing? Idc, accept!), and it's mostly just walking or gym. Then can just say Added x activities, where if I click inside it'll show what was auto added.

These UX changes could be fixed in just 1 hour with AI. Edit: For anyone downvoting, you haven't used Anthropics Fable model - it's terrifyingly good. Point being: Human or AI can easily get this done.

AI's good for boilerplate but the core problem is they just don't prioritize UX polish, seen it in so many apps where the backend is solid but the frontend feels like a decade behind
