PhoneGap/Cordova: JQuery animations running slow

Question

I have built a an app in PhoneGap/Cordova and used the JQuery library for some simple animations like slideUp etc.

They work fine on the simulator but when I try on

Answer 1

You can speed up the process by reducing the content of your page, but this is probably not what you're asking for. A good solution might be using css transitions. This way, old browsers don't show an animation while it should work smoothly on new devices. Degrades gracefully.
