+# UI Complexity Adaptation (device capability)
+
+This app adapts UI motion/effects based on device capability to improve performance on low-end devices and provide a richer experience on capable devices.
+
+## Complexity levels
+
+The classifier outputs one of:
+
+- **low**
+- **mid**
+- **high**
+
+### Inputs
+
+The classifier uses:
+
+- **Device age class** (`expo-device.deviceYearClass`)
+- **Total system RAM** (`expo-device.totalMemory`)
+- **Power saver** (`expo-battery.useLowPowerMode()`)
+
+### Thresholds
+
+Defined in `src/hooks/useDeviceUiComplexity.ts`:
+
+- **Low-end year threshold**: `deviceYearClass < 2018`
+- **Low-end RAM threshold**: `totalMemoryBytes < 2GB`
+- **Mid RAM range**: `2GB <= totalMemoryBytes < 4GB`
+- **High**: `totalMemoryBytes >= 4GB` (or when RAM is unknown, falls back to high)
+
+### Power saver behavior
+
+If **battery saver** is enabled, the classifier forces **low** complexity regardless of RAM/year.
+
+## Mapping to UI policies
+
+| Level    | `shouldReduceAnimations` | `shouldDisableHeavyEffects` | `animationTargetFPS` | `animationDurationMultiplier` |
+| -------- | ------------------------ | --------------------------- | -------------------- | ----------------------------- |
+| **low**  | `true`                   | `true`                      | 30                   | 2                             |
+| **mid**  | `true`                   | `true`                      | 45                   | 1.5                           |
+| **high** | `false`                  | `false`                     | 60                   | 1                             |
+
+## Where it's used
+
+- `useDeviceUiComplexity()` is the unified source of truth.
+- `useAdaptiveFrameRate()` is a backwards-compatible wrapper that maps to the legacy `targetFPS` (30|60) and `durationMultiplier` (1|2) API.
+
+## Components using shouldDisableHeavyEffects
+
+| Component                                  | Effect gated                                                                        |
+| ------------------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `components/parallax-scroll-view.tsx`      | Parallax scroll transform (translateY + scale) disabled on low/mid                  |
+| `src/components/mobile/LessonCarousel.tsx` | LinearGradient on progress bar and nav buttons replaced with flat colour on low/mid |
+
+## Analytics monitoring
+
+Every time `useDeviceUiComplexity()` mounts (or the classified level changes), it fires a `device_complexity_assigned` analytics event:
+
+| Property               | Type                       | Description                                      |
+| ---------------------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| `complexity_level`     | `'low' \| 'mid' \| 'high'` | Assigned complexity tier                         |
+| `is_low_end_device`    | `boolean`                  | True when year class or RAM is below threshold   |
+| `is_battery_saver`     | `boolean`                  | True when Low Power / Power Saver mode is active |
+| `animation_target_fps` | `30 \| 45 \| 60`           | Target FPS for this session                      |
+| `device_year_class`    | `number \| undefined`      | Raw year class from expo-device                  |
+
+Use this event to monitor device distribution across your user base and tune thresholds over time.
