🟢 Low lib/snapShotAnimation.ts:121

During pinch zoom, viewportFrame is scaled into visual-viewport coordinates but borderWidth and cornerRadius remain unscaled CSS pixels, so the arrival card’s border and corners do not match the target (at 2×, an 8px radius stays 8px instead of 16px). Scale both appearance dimensions by the same pinch factor used by toVisualViewportRect.

Scale the snapshot style dimensions too.

When the visual viewport is magnified, toVisualViewportRect scales only viewportFrame. Scale borderWidth and cornerRadius by the same visual viewport scale before sending them.

Suggested fix 
   const style = window.getComputedStyle(target);
+  const visualViewportScale = window.visualViewport?.scale ?? 1;
   const cornerRadius = Number.parseFloat(style.borderTopLeftRadius);
   const borderWidth = Number.parseFloat(style.borderTopWidth);

Review comment at @apps/web/src/lib/snapShotAnimation.ts at line 121:
Update the snapshot style construction near toVisualViewportRect so borderWidth
and cornerRadius are multiplied by the same visual viewport scale used to
transform viewportFrame, defaulting to 1 when no visual viewport scale is
available. Preserve the existing finite-value fallbacks before scaling.
