You’re SOL

You’ve been banging that drum for a couple of years now, Apple is banging a different drum. We’re fortunate we can turn off the creepy-shadowy-background effect (I think it’s called vibrancy) even if we have to go into accessibility settings to do it. The animations, you’re stuck with them … and the rubber band, you’re stuck with that too. bounce bounce.

No.

I remember those, I don’t think any of the facts presented in them were real facts. The bubbles were mostly better than the music. Be careful what you suggest, compiler warnings may yet animate into place.

No. No such setting exists.

There isn’t.
