## Example Issues
### Example 1: Functionality Issue
```markdown
# Issue: Transition Animation Missing
**ID:** ISS-001
**Severity:** Medium
**Status:** Open
**Delivery:** DD-001
**Test:** TS-001, Check: HP-001-step-3
## Description
Transition from Login/Signup choice to Signup form is instant instead of smooth animated transition.
## Expected
Smooth 300ms fade transition when tapping "Create Account" button, as specified in design.
## Actual
Signup form appears instantly with no transition. Feels jarring and abrupt.
## Impact
- User experience feels less polished
- Doesn't match design specifications
- Reduces perceived quality
## Design Reference
- Design Spec: C-Scenarios/03-signup/Frontend/specifications.md#transitions
- Specification states: "300ms ease-in-out fade transition"
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Open app
2. Tap "Get Started"
3. Tap "Create Account"
4. Observe instant transition (no animation)
## Screenshot

## Recommendation
Add transition animation to navigation:
```tsx
// React Native
<Stack.Screen
name="Signup"
component={SignupScreen}
options={{
animation: 'fade',
animationDuration: 300,
}}
/>

### Example 2: Design System Issue
```markdown
# Issue: Button Color Incorrect
**ID:** ISS-002
**Severity:** High
**Status:** Open
**Delivery:** DD-001
**Test:** TS-001, Check: DS-001
## Description
Primary button background color doesn't match design system specification. Using lighter blue instead of brand primary.
## Expected
Primary button background: #2563EB (brand primary color)
## Actual
Primary button background: #3B82F6 (lighter blue, not brand color)
## Impact
- Brand inconsistency across app
- Doesn't match design system
- All primary buttons affected
- Reduces brand recognition
## Design Reference
- Design System: D-Design-System/03-Atomic-Components/Buttons/Button-Primary.md
- Design Token: D-Design-System/02-Foundation/Colors/tokens.json
- Token path: `button.primary.background` → `#2563EB`
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Open any screen with primary button
2. Observe button color
3. Compare to design token
## Screenshot

## Recommendation
Update button component to use design token:
```tsx
// Before
backgroundColor: '#3B82F6'
// After
backgroundColor: tokens.button.primary.background // #2563EB
Affected components:
- "Get Started" button
- "Create Account" button
- "Continue" button
- All primary buttons

### Example 3: Accessibility Issue
```markdown
# Issue: Button Labels Not Descriptive for Screen Reader
**ID:** ISS-003
**Severity:** Medium
**Status:** Open
**Delivery:** DD-001
**Test:** TS-001, Check: A11Y-001
## Description
Buttons are announced as just "Button" by screen reader instead of descriptive labels.
## Expected
Buttons should have descriptive accessibility labels:
- "Get Started button"
- "Create Account button"
- "Log In button"
## Actual
VoiceOver announces all buttons as just "Button" with no context.
## Impact
- Screen reader users cannot understand button purpose
- Fails WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards
- Blocks visually impaired users
## Design Reference
- Accessibility requirement: All interactive elements must have descriptive labels
- WCAG 2.1: 2.4.6 Headings and Labels (Level AA)
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Enable VoiceOver (iOS) or TalkBack (Android)
2. Navigate to Welcome screen
3. Focus on "Get Started" button
4. Observe announcement: "Button" (not descriptive)
## Screenshot

## Recommendation
Add accessibility labels to all buttons:
```tsx
<Button
title="Get Started"
accessibilityLabel="Get Started button"
accessibilityHint="Opens login or signup options"
/>
<Button
title="Create Account"
accessibilityLabel="Create Account button"
accessibilityHint="Opens signup form"
/>
Affected buttons:
- All buttons in onboarding flow
- Estimate: 8 buttons total
