Samsung switches between tabs in 10+ seconds  
The other phones are even worse.  
All is fine on iPhones.

Things I try when the screen seems slower than it should:

1. In the builder, perform on-screen behavior and see in the data viewer if the data in table is changing quickly.
2. Reduce the number of images on the screen. Remove pointing to a column that contains submitted images or generated images.
3. Reduce number of inline list components.
4. Reduce number of items to be displayed in the lists.
5. As a test, copy-paste the components of your screen to a Pages project to see if that might improve performance (some App components might not yet be available in Pages).
6. If the above fails, I usually rebuild and test performance as I go along.
