Parallax effect of wallpaper, apps, and alerts
Screen transitions
Siri animations
Typing autocompletion
Animated effects in Messages
Go to Settings
> Accessibility > Motion.Turn on or off any of the following controls:
Reduce Motion: This setting reduces the motion of the user interface, including the parallax effect of icons.
Prefer Cross-Fade Transitions: This setting reduces the motion of user interface controls that slide in and out when appearing and disappearing.
