Segmented Control Page Switcher
Design the top segmented control that switches a mobile screen between two or three peer views. It sits above the page content, not inside it, and acts as the main navigation for this screen.
The control needs a clear active segment with a sliding indicator so the current view is obvious while the user moves between peers. Treat the segments as equals; none should feel secondary or nested.
Show how the full screen content changes under the control when a segment is selected. The transition should feel tied to the control, with the active state staying anchored as the content updates.
This is a navigation pattern, so spacing, hit areas, and label length matter. It should read fast, work one-handed, and still feel stable when labels are short or slightly uneven.
Design the indicator to track the selected segment’s width, not just its center, so the switch feels precise when labels vary in length.
