iPhone 17 Pro Mac ProMotion glitches

Has anyone else noticed slight stutters, probably caused by ProMotion adjusting the frame rate, when using their iPhones? I used to have an iPhone 13 Pro Max and this problem didn’t occur, unlike on my iPhone 17 Pro Max, which has these slight glitches. For example, there’s a small but annoying animation lag when opening or closing an app, or when swiping between pages on the Home Screen.

*And yes, I did try to restart.

This is not uncommon in upgrades, particularly those with a new user interface. Apple usually will have those ironed out after an update or two.

Yes, the frame rate is terrible. It’s especially noticeable swiping between the home page and the widget page to the left of the homepage. I was hoping iOS 26.1 update would fix it but the issue persists.
