Hi there guys.

I am on a iPhone 6s Plus and everything is working well, my sister is on a iPhone 6s and her bubble effects are not working. She can not receive them (except for the hidden one) and cannot send them (hard and long pressing the send button does not do anything).

Is there something of a workaround for this? A friend of mine had the same issue but there it fixed it self for some strange reason.

We already did a reset, reboot, closing the app, waiting a couple of days (she was on beta 4 before).

Someone a great tip?

Silly question but have you tried to disabling and then enabling iMessage on her phone?

I had this problem in beta 4, and apparently turning on reduce motion will not let you use the bubble and full-screen effects in iMessage, so you should turn off reduce motion if you have it on

Thanks lagwagon. I have been looking for this everywhere. It's a little annoying that the price of accessing the effects in iOS 10 is allowing the parallax effect. I hope at some point that they are able to separate these two items.

Do you mean the parallax effect for wallpapers on the Home screen? That is seperate. Change the wallpaper to "Still" instead of "Perspective"

Seems normal or logical to me that if someone is using the Accessibility option of Reduce Motion (which is meant as a disability thing and not a "animations are too slow for my personal liking, get with it Apple" thing) that it also removes the ability to animate messages.
