So I have followed the docs about Providing Up Navigation
However, if I want to customize what the animation transitions look like in xml, I am trying to do something like this

The enter animations work well, its the exit animations that seem to not get triggered. When the up button is clicked, it will navigate up to the logical parent activity. However instead of the exit animations showing, the enter animations are showing.
Am I missing something here?
Your launchMode must have been set to singleInstance. It overrides the transition animation. You should set it to singleTop.
