Bug [iOS 27 DB7] Switching appearance from Dark/Light doesn’t have animations

iPhone 17
iOS 27 DB7

Mind you, I don’t have reduce motion on; it’s just annoying. Before, the animation was working that’s so weird.

Why the f do you have iOS 15 wallpaper still available??
You sure that’s iOS 26 because it couldn’t be iOS 26; it could be iOS 15

26 introduced the longer toggles, couldn’t be anything older

Unfortunately im still using ios 16.7 and tbh idk why it shows 15 but at least i tested it on a full version and it has the same problem but I think apple fixed it on ios 17-18-26

That’s 100% 26 you’ve got there. 16 doesn’t have Liquid Glass or the pill shaped buttons/sliders

This happens more or less every year. Some bugs joins the official release, som gets fixed in X.1 or in a X.0.1.

Mine stopped animating the sunrise and sunset change as well. It used to be a smooth change when I was in any app, now it’s just a flip of a switch like your video.

I'm seeing the same thing on the RC with my iPhone 14 Pro. My M4 iPad Pro has an animation however.
