iOS 7 How-to: Reduce parallax motion effects, enable bold text
Parallax is a new feature that is introduced in iOS 7. As the user moves their device, the background image and icons move on the screen to match the movement of the device. Parallax gives the device a quasi-3D effect and adds depth to it, but some people prefer to use their iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch sans the motion.
If you are like these people on Apple’s Discussion forums, you might be getting dizzy from iOS 7’s new parallax feature.
To disable Parallax go into Settings, then tap on General.
