Sorry if this is a bit off-topic but for me the website is overwhelming. Everything is very large and animated which makes me dizzy. I don't know what is happen

Sorry if this is a bit off-topic but for me the website is overwhelming. Everything is very large and animated which makes me dizzy. I don't know what is happening when I scroll.

I actually came here to say the opposite. I thought the landing page was really well done.

  How do you access it? I tried to open it on mobile just now and it looks ok, it's the PC version that bugs me.

It is on-topic :) Thanks for saying that, I felt a bit like that when designing it but the feedback we’ve gotten so far was really positive. Might consider something less in a good sense overwhelming for the next version

  While this isn't for me as I don't use iOS daily, I wanted to say that I'm impressed with your response to feedback. And, for what it's worth, I saw the landing page on desktop and it felt nicely done, and the animations had a purpose.

    Ha, thanks! Just trying my best, first time (or maybe second) posting here

  It’s really nicely done on the whole! My feeling is that there is just a bit too much motion happening at once. I think the issue is that as you scroll (I’m on an iPhone) your eye is drawn to the content that has just scrolled into view but the content below then starts to animate too early, so you’re distracted by the motion happening below the content that you’re trying to read. This happens multiple times (for each content block…) I think you probably just need to delay the start of the next animation until you’ve scrolled down a bit further, and perhaps even reduce the amount of movement? It doesn’t need much motion to still give that dynamic feel. It’s so close to being quite an awesome landing page otherwise! Edit: also while we’re all here playing backseat designer…. The first animation of the iPhone showing some sort of archiving sequence seems to run too early for me - I don’t really understand what it’s demonstrating. By the time I’ve scrolled the iPhone into view, the archive overlay has already popped out and I didn’t get chance to see what the screen before that was showing. So it’s slightly confusing (though it looks nice!)

    Thanks a lot for such a detailed reply! I agree with a lot of your feedback but I’m limited by Readymag which I used to create the site which doesn’t allow me to set animations quite right but I’ll try again :)

Same feeling here, I'm on a 1920x1200 display. There are things animating at the bottom of the viewport that have disappeared by the time they're centred. The entire page is about 5 bullet points worth of text, but is in a massive font and requires three pages of distracting animated boxes. I can't just scan the text and see what the app does. Gimme all the info with no scrolling, and if you really want to go wild, do it below the fold.
