iPhone 7 animation lag...

Nope, it still lags 😟

RIght, still lag on iPhone 7.... incredible...

Try turning on Reduce motion in settings under accessibility as a temporary fix, until they fix the issues. My 7 Plus lags when closing apps as well.

It reduces user experience quite a lot, but as for now it seems to be the only possible solution. What's strange is that a friend of mine does not have this problem.. So I am afraid it could be a hardware problem related to a large number of iPhones but not all.

Is your friends iphone a 7 or 7 plus? How much did you play ariund with me?

because sometimes itd be smooth for a bit. Its quite random

Has anyone set their iPhone up as a 'new iPhone' and still experiencing the laggy animations???

Yes. Still have it

This is clearly a software related issue and not a hardware issue. I remember with my 6s Plus that it was poorly optimised when it was released, but once iOS 10 finally came it was incredibly snappy! I have confidence that Apple will patch it over the coming weeks/months.

Same issue here.. I just picked up my 7 (256) and i have the same problem.. Its very annoyng.. Cmon Apple.... I missed already my 6+ !!!!!!

He has a regular 7. I didn't play with it yet but I described him the problem carefully and he said he doesn't have that problem. Maybe he just doesn't care.. I just hope for apple to fix it ASAP, cause I already miss my 6!

I have this issue also, on two iPhone 7 pluses (128 and 256). Thought it was a delay in the "new" home button clicking but it' definitely the animations. I compared the IP 7 Plus to my old IP 6 Plus and the 6 Plus was noticeably faster and smoother. Between this and the horrible Bluetooth issues makes me regret getting the IP 7 Plus.

Same problem... I restored via an ipsw and noticed the delay/animation stutter greatly reduced. However, when i restored a backup, the delay/animation stutter returned in full force. Not exactly sure what this tells us other than perhaps a certain combination of settings that reduces performance.

I just talked to the Apple employee and he said that he sent an official complaint to Apple for me. He ran diagnostics on my phone and he found nothing wrong with the hardware at all. He said the more people come to the apple store and complain to us and we can send their complaints directly to Apple it'll be easier for the problem to be noticed and fixed with an update

Nice! That's good!

FYI, I found a possible solution to this. I've noticed that if the Settings | Accessibility | Zoom option is set to On, the animation stutters. It is greatly improved by turning this OFF. Give it a try.
