Animation before API 11

Question

I've just found out found android.animation.ObjectAnimator was only introduced in Android API 11.

Is there any other way of animating objects on older android phones?

Answer 1

You can use Jake Wharton's NineOldAndroids [1] which is a backport of the Honeycomb new Animation Framework for 2.x Android devices. It is very easy to use, as it mimics the same API you would use on 11+ devices.
