So you're telling me that if you restore from an IPSW, the animation won't hiccup?
Interesting. There ma be something about the restore process vs whatever they did at the factory.
..that wonky stutter/frame issue when double clicking the home button on an iPhone 7.
lol.
lol.
Are you referring to the task switcher animation change? It looks different and not like a stutter to me.
Whenever you have 1 or more apps open and you double click them to see the slider it does a stutter animation it's somewhat jarring and noticeable.
It's been talked about all over these forums since the 7 came out. Where exactly would I report it?
Hello,
I'm french. I got the same lag, when i'm closing app on my iPhone 7.
I see some lags when I scroll through the list of contacts who sent me a text message in the application "message". You too ?

I restored via an ipsw and noticed the delay/animation stutter greatly reduced. However, when i restored a backup, the delay/animation stutter returned in full force. Not exactly sure what this tells us other than perhaps a certain combination of settings that reduces performance.
He must've not notice it. I've tried restoring from backup, installing the ispw and as new and it still happens. Go to an apple store and try it on all iPhone 7's and 7 pluses and you will see that ALL of them have the same issue. Some people just don't see it but its there.
I can't do that and risk losing all my blocked contacts and apps and things. But I've seen numerous reports of people noticing this weird slight stutter when you switch apps, the app icon page (home screen) does this janky stutter/bounce before you switch apps.
[doublepost=1474916323][/doublepost]I am almost positive it's not a "my personal phone" thing but something happening on all 7's due to everyone mentioning it on here. Maybe you're not noticing it? It only happens in a certain way when you switch apps, but not every time.
Ok, so it doesn't happen with you're on the home screen and double click, but it does if you have apps open in the app switcher and then double click and you get that wonky stutter, it's really quick but the home screen page seems to dip down and back up really quickly.

The animation bug I had was much more severe than what you might be talking about. It's by no means perfect, but if I pressed home on two iPhone 7's, one would close, and one would wait half a second to close. It was a drastic delay that led me to this post.
My animation has a subtle stutter now, but it's not as noticeable as before. I wish I took a video.
That's how it's always been for me, there is a stutter that some people don't even notice but I do
Its more likely than not corruption that has carried over from previous backups and devices. None of the iOS 10 devices that I have access to experience what you are describing. Every device was set up as new.
As Mirollin states, I have not noticed the behavior described by the OP on a iPhone 7 or iPhone 7+. I tend to be very sensitive to any kind of stutter and it is simply not there. By the way, in both cases the iPhones were restored from backups with the latest version of iTunes. Both iPhones have now been updated to iOS 10.0.2 and are still very fluid and smooth performance-wise.
Your description is exactly how mine is. There's a pronounced delay when you press the home button and when the app initiates the closing animation AND there's also the slight stutter during the animation.
When I restored via the ipsw, the delay was gone. The stutter was still there but much more subtle to the point that i'd probably not have noticed it if I didn't already know about it.
When I subsequently restored my backup, both the delay and stutter returned.
on my devide i dont have any delay. my homebutton is so fast, that even the app switcher dont know if i want to close the app or going to the appswitcher. so for that reason i have silly bouncing app animations when double press the homebutton while im in an app.
I swear I saw tons of users on here talking about it and now no one has it?
It's very slight but noticeable.
