I've Got EXTRA Slow Animations

Check home button click speed under accessability and if you have triple click accessibility turned on turn it off.

 

Have you tried resetting your iPhone to factory settings and starting fresh?

*edit* wow, someone else already posted a solution. Nice.

 

Yeah that weird home button triple click shortcut effect slowing down app closing is a rather odd one.

 

But of course, the iPhone needs to wait if you click the home button again if triple click is enabled.

 

Doesnt seem like there's much of a similar showdown to detect if there's a double click to being up multitasking, despite the same type if logic seemingly applying to that case.

 

Uncle. I'm in General - Accessibility and there is no triple click option. iPhone 5s iOS 7.0.3. Trying to find a screenshot... What am I missing (besides the option)?

 

Scroll to the bottom, tap on "Accessibility Shortcut". If you turn them all off then the delay will be gone.

 

This is true. However, the delay is a small price to pay for being able to invert colors and let my eyes cool down from the bright white.

I'm not even sure why the delay needs to be longer... If you haven't clicked twice within the double-tap window, you won't be clicking three times either.

 

Thank you. I was clicking through all the options and missed that one.

 

Thank you, this fixed the problem for me. I was really beginning to regret updating to iOS 7, my 4S became a pain to use, it took seconds to exit apps, the keyboard lagged terribly, and everything just performed poorly. Now it feels like a new phone.
