Separate 'Reduce Motion' preferences for individual iOS 26 UI elements
Please allow me to toggle different preferences specific to “Reduce Motion” individually. I enjoy the way that iOS 26 looks and reacts. I like the way when I scroll from page to page the icons shift under the light of my wallpaper. But if I want to preserve battery life by not unnecessarily using the gyro in the phone to give a parallax effect of my icons being in front of my wallpaper my only two options are to leave “Low Power Mode” on forever which limits everything else like background refreshing, or I toggle “Reduced Motion” in Accessibility which gets rid of every cool and exciting new aspect of the iOS 26 UI. Sure over the course of a day it might only save me 1% of battery, if that, but I know it affects battery because otherwise it wouldn’t be apart of “Low Battery Mode”. Please just let me have my 1% of battery life back.
