The operation of photos on Mac is very convenient as it provides the user with several options and features to toggle and arrange the photos. The Mac photo app is equipped with scanning, zooming and panning and as similar as processing photos in iOS. The app uses the interface of Mac to access animations. At times, while sliding the photos the Mac photos app, slow performance can be annoying.

The app animates a snazzy draw while processing and the app performance is slow while sliding the photos. This can be diminished by turning the motion animation off.

This operation of enabling the reduce motion will put light pressure on the hardware as it’ll stop the animation by putting a simple display of images. The latest and the greatest Macs with heavy RAM and SSD might have a bare effect of this option. The latest versions have got a strong processing power, but some of the models will find it much more convenient for the processing of the images.

At times, users might not find much difference with this process in the images app. They have the option to follow the same above explained steps and can disable the ‘reduce motion’ option. They’ll again be on the same interface with the animated way of zooming and zipping the pictures.
