Power Saver feature of android (or maybe just the Cyanogenmod flavor of it) disables all animation which is based on the android UI framework and besides making everything faster (and apparently less power hungry), it could also change the way a user uses an app or bypass restrictions that the app developer relies on to limit user activity (e.g. like/dislike on a series of items).
- lake99 11y agoDon't use Power Saver for this. The mode affects many things pretty pervasively. Instead, under Settings->Developer Options, you'll find three settings related to animations. I keep them all turned off. Of course, this is the first thing I do no matter what UI I'm using. Dear UI/UX designers, I don't care what you do with these animations as long as you let me turn it off completely (via the OS, if necessary). Just don't force animations on users.
- ferbivore 11y agoNot sure if that still happens now, but turning "Animator duration scale" off used to affect auto-scrolling in Hangouts. Might want to check that if you get any weird issues.
- lake99 11y agoI don't use Hangouts, so I'll never know. But I'll keep your comment in mind for other software. Google doesn't help matters by being so terribly slow to act on bug reports.
