Here’s How I Completely Turned Off Animations in My POCO Phone?

I recently bought a POCO phone, but I noticed a bit too many animations in the notification panel, app switching, and similar areas. However, I have completely disabled these animations on my phone to suit my preference. If you are also annoyed by these and want to remove them, follow the steps mentioned below.

As everyone knows, all Android phones have an option in Developer Options to reduce the built-in animations, and I set all three of these options to 0. However, I still noticed animations in certain parts of the device’s Android OS, such as opening the notification panel and switching between apps.

However, when I analyzed the POCO settings deeply, I discovered that POCO offers an option in its accessibility settings, and as soon as you enable it, all the unnecessary animations just disappear. This feature is extremely essential for users who do not like extra animations.

Did you know that phones come with animations along with the operating system to hide minor lags? If you disable animations, you may experience some minor lag while accessing functions on your phone.
