This turns off the parallax effect of icons and alerts. Many people also find the phone easier to use in this setting.

Next you can reduce the see-through background effects which can also slow things down on an older iPhone.

Tap on Settings > General > Accessibility > Increase Contrast and set Reduce Transparency to On.
First of all, thanks for this thread Shaun. Very informative.

Second, masraum, thank you for your post. I followed it to a tee.

However, the bolded above seems counter-intuitive to me. Should the "on" be "off"? Be gentle with me, I am old.

Again, thanks!
