I read this and laughed out loud. I thing that you should curb your use of caffeine / cocaine. a whole second (if that) and you are freaking out. Fck me I wouldn't want to be stuck in traffic with you, you must go fricking bananas and start sweating, shaking then attacking people.

That's an awful nice picture of me you're painting there, chief. Much obliged.

My opinion does not match yours, no need to get aggravated my friend. If it calms your nerves I swapped with a family member so it was no hassle :)
 
I agree that it's not the time wasted that's the issue, but the annoyance that a swipe on the screen didn't register, and it breaks your "flow".

Repeating gestures and taps was such a rare occurrence for me in previous iOS versions. Seem to do it a lot now. Sometimes even tap two or three times (especially if I went in the wrong menu and try to get back).

Sure it's only 1.5 seconds or whatever. But that'll add up to countless additional gestures and taps, and overall a lot of time added.

I was at the front of a line being served when I had to access some data from my notes. I'm pretty fast on my phone, but it felt like ages as I waited for each animation to end so it would register my next step, until I finally made it to the right spot. People behind me were breathing down my neck the whole time.

Should have told them it was iOS 7 animations..
 
The first half of the animation is fine. I don't like how I'm forced to wait as the rest of the icons slowwwwly find their final resting place before I'm "allowed" to swipe to another home screen. :mad:
 
Wait for a jailbreak. Or wait for Apple to fix it for you. I know which one will be met with death first.
 
I hope that everyone here complaining about these few seconds all have SSDs on the computers to speed up the load times as that's lots of seconds killed waiting for programs and apps to load, save, and backup on the computer too.
 
I have a phone not updated and another phone that is updated side by side. It's a minuscule amount of time difference. A blink of the eye. Maybe y'all have other things going on that's slowing the phone down. I could see maybe on a 4 or 4s, but, not on the 5. Everyone wants more add ons. These forums were full for a year of complaints. Everyone wanted more out of ios. Now we have it. Those will come with a price tag. I agree their needs to be an on off feature. But that's still again a price to be paid. More code, less space available. Apple is working on bug fixes right now. Not convenience issues.

But they made it slower, that's not a usability improvement.

My comment still applies as all new OS released have more interaction and read/write cycles therefor making them slower. And in general if we are worried about seconds added here and there with any idevice then we should all be running solid state drives as seconds saved are seconds saved right??
 
I swapped my 5 for a non-updated one just because of this. The ONE thing apple have genuinely made worse/slower. Everything else I dealt with, even liked, but slowing the time I'm able to do anything is unacceptable.

You seriously swapped phones because you couldn't wait 1 second to tap/swipe?
 
Hi all,

After unlock the device, there is a small animation of the apps showing up.

well, I used to swipe very fast to other page, because I know what I want, but during the time of this animation I swipe and swipe... and nothing happens.

is really annoying. In my iPad mini I was like "ok, the specs are not very high, is acceptable." but now I see that iPhone 5s is the same.

how can I minimize this annoying issue?

tks
What app are you trying to reach with such urgency? Here's a workaround: lock your phone screen while in an app instead of on the home screen. If you don't lock your phone on the home screen, you don't need to wait for the home screen animation.
 
As usual, those who don't care about and/or don't notice this try to put down those who do (for whatever reason)...all while they still don't care about and/or notice it.

And they also clearly don't get the underlying issue--which is simply that of changed user experience--probably largely because they don't care about and/or notice it, and probably never really will, despite any explanations that have been provided or will be provided by those who do notice it and care about it. Kind of makes it pointless to engage replies of that sort since it won't result in anything useful.

Or they see and, notice it, and recognize that in the grand scheme of things it's really not that big a deal and definitely not worth getting all worked up over. If this is how people react to a change in something as unimportant as an electronic gadget, it's no wonder the world has devolved into what it is today.

Apple is filtering its customers.
If u know what i mean:rolleyes:

So, discussing something in an online forum dedicated to rumors related to a technological company is even remotely related to the state of the world today? To say that's just an overstatement would be an understatement.

Don't see the subject of a particular thread as an issue? That's great, but no need to directly or indirectly somehow put down those who do. And repeatedly telling others that you don't consider something to be an issue doesn't in any way change the fact that it is an issue (for whatever reason) to them.

Something that is mostly subjective, such as user experience (which can be and is different for different people) won't change for someone just because someone else tries to explain what it's like for them and why it should be that way for everyone. If someone likes the color red, no matter how much they demonstrate to someone else what they think are that color's amazing qualities, they still won't change anything for someone who doesn't like red (for one reason or another).

---

Actually, putting all that aside, if something like that isn't a big deal, why is it a big deal for quite a few to post and make arguments about it not being a big deal? Seems counterintuitive and irrational to continually argue about something that isn't a big deal, right?
 
You are now changing your position. You said:

I see it, I notice it, and I'm saying that all of this rage dedicated to a change in an eletronic gadget is disproportionately high in relation to pretty much everything else in life. This isn't discussion, it's hyperbole. In reading this forum you would think that we were discussing the defunding of the Afforadable Care Act and not the color of an icon on a phone. If you can't see that, then you have lost perspective.

Change happens, change is inevitable. Get over it and deal.

Change certainly happens but it doesn't mean that any change is a good change. And when it's not a good change it doesn't mean that people shouldn't discuss it. As for hyperbole or not, again, it's an online forum and on a rumors site on top of it.

And once again if this is all overblown and isn't of much consequence then what's the point of trying to convince others of something?
 
Ya, this is on purpose. While the animation is happening, I can tap on an app and it will blink like it will open, but doesn't.

Tough guy tech talk. LOL

Anyone who has an issue with their phone had BETTER update their home computer! :rolleyes:

The problem exists when unlocking the phone and recognizing that the app you need is on another page. Your "workaround" would take twice as long to accomplish this.
 
The people that don't notice the animations in this thread are oblivious to the ios 7 changes - not sure why they like to insult others, maybe low self-confidence?

You just don't get it, so no wonder you are making such stupid comments like this. The whole complaint is that the extra animations and seconds wasted awaiting for them to compete are causing issues. The seconds are being wasted waiting for animations when previously they weren't there and this wasted time is eating into their precious lifestyles. This is why it is suggested that everyone complaining should have SSDs as the same precious life seconds are being wasted waiting on load, launch, save, close, read, and shutdown times on their computers. Seconds wasted are seconds wasted no matter where they are wasted, phone or computer. If you won't accept them on one then why blindly accept them on another?

Is this not also an insult on your part against them? Is it not speculation on your part that they have issues and are insulting them again (just because one doesn't notice something does not make them oblivious to all things)? Using your logic and statements, could it not be concluded then that you too have low self esteem as well?
