Same here. It was also giving me tremendous headaches. Its these neon whites and other bright colors that are killing my eyes. What was Sir Jonathan Ive thinking when he decided to switch from soothing background/foreground colors in ios 6 to these bright colors in ios7. Of course its going to appeal to the young generation but there are other age groups too.

Before switching back to ios6, I also noticed that now the music's progress/forward/rewind button is so small that its not easy to navigate anymore. A lot of time you miss the target which is a tiny cursor like small bar. The area not covered by album cover is bright white. That looks so cheap and childish.

Apple: Please allow users to select another desktop theme that is more soothing to eyes.

This happens to me idk what it is but after awhile I'm squinting my eyes my head hurts and can't see anything I ended up getting so sick from it it to bright the neon is horrifying I love the change but it could probably cause a brain aneurism a stroke, seizures or blindness I have to put on polarized sunglasses so my head won't hurt when looking at the screen  

I am having the same issue. 

I have a hacky workaround, its not the best thing but what I have done is leave the apps I use running, double click the home button to get the task switching and swipe amongst them to select the app i need to switch to.  Not power efficient but at least its not giving me a headache.

I would love to go back to IOS6.  Guess it's not possible.  What a bummer.  First time I've ever really been disappointed in Apple.

Good morning!
New Design iOS 7 just ****. Absolutely not read the font on the keyboard. Icons on the desktop just as bad read. Color schemes, as cheap Chinese phones. The overall feel of the look of iOS 7 - nasty color, poor design.
Buying a phone for $ 900 (in Russian), I bought not only the appearance and reliability, I have bought and convenience iOS!!!

Please return the ability to downgrade to iOS 6 or add another color and desktop themes!

actually the mmotion effect is the worst with the dark black wallpaper...the lighter color full wallpaper are a tad bit better

Just another once-happy-iPhone-5 user chiming in with the same disappointment and nausea from the newest update. Unfortunately the "reduce motion" option really doesn't give relief to my weary/spinning head. Without trying to be overly dramatic, I can't stand looking at my phone any more...sad. It stinks but it seems the only solution is to try and find another smartphone that either doesn't have such unnecessary movement or at least lets you choose to have it or not. For the price one pays you'd think the user could have more control over the experience.

this animation thing is making national news,  read an article today on ABC news, so hopefully it will get the attention it needs for a fix.

iOS 7 Design Is Giving Some People Motion Sickness And Vertigo

Make iOS 7 less nausea-inducing | Macworld

I do not like the new ios 7 either i do not like using my iphone anymore, i am due for an upgrade someday I might just switch to a different brand of phone.  which is sad b/c i loveed my iphone for yrs, i have iphone 4

WOW, that's why!! I haven't updated to iOS 7 yet cause I'm waiting for them to fix all the bugs (as always) but the other day I was playing with my friend's iPhne 5 and I did feel nausous for a sec. Thanks for the warning guys I'll totally stay way from it till it's been fixed!!!!

Just to be clear and this is only my personal feelings. Motion sickness is 100% real. I dont play first person video games due to it and have never had a problem with any computer, tablet or phone. I have a iPhone 5, iPad mini, and iMac. All with no problems until upgrading my iPhone 5 to iOS7, the next day I woke up super dizzy and nauseous. Luckily I was able to revert back to iOS6 just in time. To be clear: I love iOS7. I like the flat design, the new features and everything. Its literally just the zooming in and out when opening and closing apps. The colors are fine, the design is fine for me. Its just that one feature that sets off psychical sickness when using. I'm not "whining" or crying I'm simply asking Apple to allow either a way to turn off the zoom or some sort of option to "Enable Classic Annimations" which could animate like iOS6.

BTW: Another story about the problem: iOS 7 motion sickness is real. What’s Apple going to do about it?

I'm going on day 5 with the headaches and nausea...........I can't take it anymore!!!

I am having the same issue...my eyes hurt and ive got a terrible headache.

Hoping apple gets rid of all zooming ughhh
