I turned on reduced animation on my iPhone 6S running iOS 9.1 (not because of performance issue, I just don't like prolonged animation on basic UI). With this setting, there's still some effects. Eg. going into folder, there's fade in/out effect. Also when running app, etc.

However, I noticed that sometimes even those animations are missing. Eg. when I open a folder of apps, it's just cut into the opened folder instead of the typical faded in/out effect. This behavior doesn't change even if I turned on animations back. The only way to "fix" this is to reboot the phone.

Anybody experience the same issue?

Reduce Motion isn't really faster than with animations on. Anyway It sounds like an animation lag/glitch. You could try restarting your phone.

Don't mean to be rude, but if you actually read my question, I already said that rebooting fix the issue, until it shows up again.

Oops sorry, I missed that. I guess Apple will have to fix it in an update then.

I intentionally trigger this bug upon every reboot, so that I don't have to stare at those lengthy cross fade/ease in-out animations...

Trust me man..9.2 has a better condition not to face the animation glitch than 9.1.

I need to reboot 2times a month to get rid of that in 9.1. And 9.2...i dont even need to do it.

The bug happens because of AssistiveTouch.
