title: Can I cause React Native's Switch component to animate when changing its state when not being directly pressed by the user?
body: <p>In my React Native project I'm using the Switch component. It can be switched directly by pressing it, but I also want to let the user change it by pressing nearby related items.</p>
  
  <p>It of course animates the switching when pressed, but when I changed its state using <code>setState()</code> it just jumps directly to the other position without animation.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way I can programmatically trigger the animation when changing its state from code?</p>
  
  <p>(There is <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42565113">a question with a similar wording</a> but it seems to be to an unrelated problem I can't quite work out.)</p>
