I really like disabling animations on my phone. Everything is so fast, it's amazing. Reminds me that hardware has improved the the past decade.
Particularly with Android 12, wow. So many animations added, and they run so, so, so slowly. There were a number of rather severe UI glitches for the first few patches, but it's alright nowadays. Beyond 12's other major issues, that is - I highly recommend not upgrading. Maybe 13 will actually fix some of it.
- 411111111111111 4y agoI switched mine to x0.5 (halved). I wish x0.25 was possible, but that was the lowest option and completely turning it off felt a little janky to me. (If anyone is looking for the option: it's in the developer settings and there are two entries, one for windows and another for general animations.)
- kbelder 4y agoI did that a week ago, just stumbled across the option in the accessibility options. Now I wish I had done it many years ago (is it a new option?). There's not a single animation that is better than its own absence. The worst thing is that it isn't respected by many apps and browsers.
- Groxx 4y agoYeah, generally speaking many things with "momentum" from a touch will still have momentum (probably a good thing) and anything doing custom animation code will be unaffected (not a good thing! use the framework please, app programmers!). But it does at least get rid of that awful stretch-bounce animation on scroll views basically everywhere. That alone is practically worth it.
