I’m noticing that when I’m scrolling on safari, YouTube, and Instagram that it seems to stutter and lag. Zooming in on images on Instagram and scrolling through stories has an animation lag where it seems like the frame rate drops. Didn’t have this issues on my 7plus. Anyone else experiencing this type of issue?
 
I've had it happen in youtube. I also had a huge FPS drop when playing SWGOH. Just a stutter fest. It only happened once this past weekend and not again. I assume developers just need to update their apps.
 
Bummer to hear this , incoming Max here.

Let’s hope it’s just a buggy iOS 13 that’s fixable. Smooth scrolling is iPhones forte.
 
What about watching videos or streaming stuff?

I’ve noticed some issues with watching videos as well. Not sure if it’s the internet connection or the same stutter as I get while scrolling through different apps.

I’ve done all the updates to iOS13, but the issues still persist.
 
I just tried to recreate what I saw in YT, in normal and dark mode, and was not able to. Text was fine while scrolling comments. I do remember seeing it though.
 
The keyboard froze on me completely in the slack app. Although slack is not native so might be down to the app itself.

Has this been fixed for anyone? I’m having this stutter issue when exiting out of apps. It just started about 3 days ago and it makes using the phone less enjoyable. I’m still within the 14 day return period so I’m wondering if I should return the phone. I’m running iOS 13.2 by the way.

Exactly same issue on my XS MAX. Also stuttering in videos too. Zooming photos, changing stories in instagram, scrolling and even app opening or closing animation are not smooth.
Since iOS 12 lot’s of xs/xs max owners suffering with this issue.
