In this post, we will show you how to disable animations on Android Pie 9 (One UI) devices in order to make Android feel faster. Animations look nice when you navigate your phone or tablet, but they can cause delays and even slow down devices that are less powerful. Disabling them may improve the performance of your Android device. One thing that I’ve noticed that even if you own Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus or Samsung Galaxy S10+ without disabling the animations, your phone still works slow.
However, Android devices display animations when they’re switching between apps, windows, and various menus. Animations often look slick, but take time — and sometimes even cause the phone to lag if it’s low in resources.
Meanwhile, The good news is that you can actually speed up your Android Pie 9 (One UI) device by disabling the animations. That’s the keyword here because it doesn’t actually speed up your phone, it just makes it appear as menus and what’s not going to load faster. Nonetheless, if you choose to disable animations, some of the strain on the CPU / GPU will be eliminated, so this will certainly help to reduce the latency on systems with lower resources.
How to Disable Animations in Android Pie 9 (One UI)
Here we will show you two methods to Disable animations in Android Pie or One UI. Both the methods are hidden inside the Samsung One UI Settings.
