Q: Any way to turn off iOS 7 navigation animations?

The zoom animations everywhere on the new iOS 7 are literally making me nauseous and giving me a headache.  It's exactly how I used to get car sick if I tried to read in the car.

 

How do I turn them off?  Do I have to revert to 6?

iPhone 4

    I'm curious as to how many people really are affected. It can't be a lot.

     

    Difficult to say, but a related issue, simulator sickness, can affect well upwards of 50% of the user population, if conditions are, erm, "right". And those are people who do NOT get sick when they're driving a real car, or flying a real plane (food for trolls).

    That's not something (flight, driving, etc) simulator makers like to admit so they arrange matters to have lower numbers among their users. Of course, one also cannot compare a tiny phone screen to the large, multi-screen displays used in that kind of simulator. Yet, it illustrates quite nicely that the number of people being affected may be a good deal higher than what one would expect.

    And there is a App called iPhoto for iOS that uses Maps. Yes you have to pay, for something you never had to, BUT it is a work around and iPhoto on the iPad looks beautiful . . . .

    I agree. Please Apple add a setting to disable zooming animations ‘they are nasty and make me feel ill.

    Do not disable zoom animation!!! Please

     

    Operating system without them will be horrible. Give us an option for center zoom or speed them up.

     

    Just like in ios 6. No one had an issue

    Noone is asking for ANYTHING to be removed, we are simply asking for a option in the settings to either disable zoom animations or enable 'classic animations (ios6 style). Anyone that thinks we are demanding things to be removed or are just unhappy with GUI need to think again.

    Getting back ios6 style is not going to happen. A simple being able to turn off the zooming should already be there. It will just be how stubborn they are in not letting people adjust their "perfect" ui.

    I finally found an iphone 5 and purchased it today.  It has ios6 on it, and I will not upgrade it.  Problem solved, for me, at least, for the time being.  I hope Apple finds a way to fix this, as I may need to upgrade one day!

    That's the problem. More or less, you're going to have to upgrade sooner or later. They're not going back, and neither are the app developers. I am extremely dissatisfied, and am more interested than ever in other manufacturers phones and tablets. For instance: Amazon when their Paperwhite e-reader first came out last yeat, they got AHEAD of the customers and said, hey, there's some discoloration, some areas will appear brighter than others. And they addressed these problems and fixed them. Same with the Fire: these new devices look like they're going to be terrific, and Amazon addresses the #1 cusotmer concern with the creation of Mayday.I'm not sure Apple cares that there's a segement of their users who have a major issue with their devices (if people are saying I'm getting migraines and nausea - due to a bunch of gimmicks - to the point I can't even use my phone, yes, that's a major concern). A significant migration away from Apple's dominance is already underway, and this seems to be exasperating the problem. And the point of a new OS is to generate enthusiasm,. confidence and excitement, not the opposite.

     

    I wouldn't wear a pair of shoes that are causing me major foot pain, no matter whose logo is on the side of the shoe. Same principle goes with my tech devices.

    I was sick within a minute of using iOS 7. Quickly downgraded to iOS 6 and all is good except I'm stuck on iPhone 5 forever...

    And Apple are and have been #1 in Customer Satisfaction and the support they give for at least 2013, and im sure i could find the stats for years before hand too. 

    People here i do understand what and how you feel, but give them a chance to fix this, instead of condemming them to the grave before they even had a chance to get a update out. They are listening believe me, but we all know they aren't big on letting things out.

     

    Remember back and us poor Developers where kept in the dark and had a back "soon" sign out for our Dev Portal, and that was for 4 weeks, so yes complain, but give them a chance to come back with a fix. If anything, if you choose to believe it or not, but Apple DO bend backwards to help out when a iPhone, iPad, iPad Mini, Mac or any of their products go wrong, and without question a majority of the time, swap it out for a new product, so sit wait, and do all those things, like lowering the brightness, contrast and all those tips, until Apple bring out a fix AND THEY WILL because they know their customer base and they do their best to please us . . .
