Is your phone slow to switch screens or open apps? Changing animation settings speeds up the process. This secret feature is easy to use. Here are some quick ways to speed up your Android phone.
Knowing the Scale of Android Animation
Android Animation Scale controls UI transitions like app switching and element interaction. Material Design, Android’s design system, needs it. Animations inform users and hide loading times. Slower phones feature endless default animations, making them even less reactive. Fortunately, you can modify these animation sizes to make your phone more responsive regardless of speed.
How to Change Animation Speed on Android?
Smooth app casting and screen-switching animations can feel slow. However, you can hide these to speed up your phone:
- Launch phone Settings.
- Scroll to About phone and press.
- Tap the Build number seven times fast. Creator options enabled can show up at the bottom.
- Return to main Settings.
- Developer choices should appear at the bottom. Tap it.
- Scroll down to Drawing or Animations.
- Three animation-speed settings are available:
- Window animation scale
- Animation zoom transition
- Scale animator duration
- Each is 1x by default. Tap each one and select 0.5x to speed them up. It is not recommended to set them to 0.0x, as it removes all animations.
- Test the device with the changed settings. If you don’t like the speed, you can tweak it again.
Things to recall
- Adjusting animation scaling speeds up your phone but doesn’t enhance processing speed. Things may run smoother, but the phone isn’t faster.
- Completely disabling animations can damage your experience. Disabling them may make your gadget tougher to comprehend.
- Custom animations may not work with scaled apps. This could disturb you, so try fixing only the artist’s time scale to 1.
- You may not be able to revert to the default animation scale. Real devices feel slower.
Q: What animation speed do you recommend?
A: Your preference! Start with 0.5x and feel it. You can always raise or lower it.
Q: What happens when I set animations to 0.0x?
A: 0.0x disables animations. This may make things jerky and not respond, so avoid using it daily.
Q: Changing the animation speed doesn’t speed up my phone.
A: Newer phones may have small animation speed changes. The modifications may require a phone restart.
Will this speed up my phone?
It can seem faster due to fewer animations, but it won’t boost your phone’s processing power.
You should have changed the animation speed to your chosen speed by now. Setting the animation speed too low could cause issues. If these steps worked, please leave a comment.
