Scaling an AWS Amplify Application for better experience for users in all regions

Application : Android Backend : AWS Amplify Issue : AWS Amplify Scaling and GraphQL Pagination

In Splash Screen, i am getting the userID using Amplify.Auth?.currentUser?.userId and using that userID, I am fetching User information saved in User table using amplify-framework GraphQLRequest(ModelQuery.list)

So, the issue is for the users around the selected AWS region for the amplify, the Splash page loading is fine. However, for the users who are far, the experience on Splash and others sections of the App is not good while loading the data (which i think is currently it due to the pagination thing in the GraphQL API)

So my questions are :

1. What can i do better to reduce the API calls using GraphQL API in context of AWS amplify
2. How can i deploy the AWS amplify application/backend in multiple AWS regions.
