Speed your Android device up drastically, Developer mode hack
When you switch apps or top around through pop-ups, the speed of the animations that transition you from one screen to the next actually have a huge impact on the speed of the user interface. Doubling the speed of these animations actually has a massive impact on how fast your Android phone feels.
Each time you open an app, close an app, open or tap out of pop-ups, or switch between apps, your phone plays a transition animation. This way there’s a smooth transition from one screen to the next, rather than just an abrupt image change. Those animations might seem fast, but there’s an easy way to speed them up even more and the end result is a phone that feel much faster with a UI that seems much more fluid. And the best part is that it couldn’t be easier to adjust these settings.
There’s a secret Settings menu inside Android’s Settings app called “Developer options” and it’s filled with a wide range of advanced options. It’s hidden by default — it is a secret, after all — but it’s simple to gain access to it on your phone.
Once you’ve gained access to the Developer options on your phone, open it and scroll down to DRAWING until you see the following three settings:
You can turn all three settings off completely, that gives the fastest result with no animation, although it will be a bit weird, the device becomes almost too fast without animation.
Nevertheless, the result will be a lot faster device. I did this on my Samsung Galaxy Tab running Android 7 and it's like new now.
Enjoy!

- Open the Settings app
- If your handset runs Android 8.0+, tap System (skip this step if you’re on an earlier version of Android)
- Scroll down and tap About phone
- Scroll down again and tap Build number 7 times consecutively
Once you’ve gained access to the Developer options on your phone, open it and scroll down to DRAWING until you see the following three settings:
- Window animation scale
- Transition animation scale
- Animator animation scale
You can turn all three settings off completely, that gives the fastest result with no animation, although it will be a bit weird, the device becomes almost too fast without animation.
Nevertheless, the result will be a lot faster device. I did this on my Samsung Galaxy Tab running Android 7 and it's like new now.
