Unwanted animation effect with .navigationBarHidden(true) - ios

Question

I have a simple loading view on SwiftUI.
When I am displaying this loading screen with .navigationBarHidden(true) on NavigationView.
There is an issue that animation has an unwanted effect on it.
This is my loading animation
struct LoaderThreeDot: View {
var size: CGFloat = 20
#State private var shouldAnimate = false
var body: some View {
HStack(alignment: .center) {
Circle()
.fill(Color.blue)
.scaleEffect(shouldAnimate ? 1.0 : 0.5, anchor: .center)
.animation(Animation.easeInOut(duration: 0.5).repeatForever())
.frame(width: size, height: size)
Circle()
.fill(Color.blue)
.scaleEffect(shouldAnimate ? 1.0 : 0.5, anchor: .center)
.animation(Animation.easeInOut(duration: 0.5).repeatForever().delay(0.3))
.frame(width: size, height: size, alignment: .center)
Circle()
.fill(Color.blue)
.scaleEffect(shouldAnimate ? 1.0 : 0.5, anchor: .center)
.animation(Animation.easeInOut(duration: 0.5).repeatForever().delay(0.6))
.frame(width: size, height: size, alignment: .center)
}
.onAppear {
self.shouldAnimate = true
}
}
}
LoadingView as follow:
struct LoadingView<Content>: View where Content: View {
let title: String
var content: () -> Content
#State var showLoader = false
var body: some View {
ZStack {
self.content()
.disabled(true)
.blur(radius: 3)
Rectangle()
.foregroundColor(Color.black.opacity(0.4))
.ignoresSafeArea()
VStack {
if showLoader {
LoaderThreeDot()
}
Text(title)
.foregroundColor(.black)
.font(.body)
.padding(.top, 10)
}
.padding(.all, 60)
.background(backgroundView)
}
.onAppear {
showLoader.toggle()
}
}
private var backgroundView: some View {
RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 12)
.foregroundColor(Color.white)
.shadow(radius: 10)
}
}
And simply presenting it as follow:
NavigationView {
ZStack {
LoadingView(title: "Loading...") {
Rectangle()
.foregroundColor(.red)
}
}
.navigationBarHidden(true)
}
If I remove .navigationBarHidden(true) animation looks ok.
So I am guessing that the animation effect started when the navigation bar was shown and it somehow affecting the animation after the navigation bar is hidden.
Is there any way I can avoid this?

Change your toggle on the main thered.
// Other code
.onAppear() {
DispatchQueue.main.async { //<--- Here
showLoader.toggle()
}
}
// Other code
