Comparison of Dynamic Island animations, in proper slow motion, between iOS 16 and iOS 17/18 Main downgrades since iOS 17: - the island no longer "breathes" - bouncing/springiness is now very exaggerated, perhaps even improperly eased - the blobs often don't, or incorrectly do the merging "metaball" animation -...

iOS 16's original Dynamic Island animations in much higher fidelity (maybe composited/rendered?) also seen here:

“(not shown) physical cutout is now often revealed/improperly masked by the animations” man i’m so glad i’m not the only one that noticed this and was annoyed, i recently got a 14p, and was so annoyed at how often the island animations revealed the physical cutout

Same for the icons…

Was the icon blur actually ever a thing in iOS? I don’t recall 🤔 The bounce still seems to exist somewhat at least, it just requires stronger flings to make it happen, especially with icons at the top. They might have had the animations/physics slowed down for the demo as well, which makes the bounce more apparent in the Simulator.

This is textbook corruption in America - A group of multimillionaires from New York moved and bought beachfront property in a small town called Boca Grande, Florida - The beach is public and the only way to access it for the local residents is to go to the island, park and enjoy it - The millionaires from New York who bought properties there, decided they didn’t like looking at the public in their backyards using the beach “So what did they do? They paid for Lee County commissioners campaigns. And they said now that we did that, you need to go ahead and take care of the beach access because we don't want the public there anymore. — So what Lee county commissioners did is they went ahead and drafted up this parking ordinance that basically gets rid of all the parking on the island. If you don't live on the island, good luck” It passed without any say from the locals “Locals are outraged. No one is good with this. Even Boca grand business owners stood up and said, hold on a minute. No, no, no. You're going to tank our business for these millionaires that are on this island for two seconds out of the year. Our business is from the locals. Our business is from seasonal tourists. How are they supposed to come and enjoy this island if you took away the parking — You're going to kill the island. They don't care. They do not care. It is absolutely disgusting that this passed. It makes no sense. The locals who use the island had zero say. It's honestly heartbreaking”
