For a fun-filled iMessaging experience, I have always loved using screen and bubble effects on the iPhone. The message effects add that extra flavor to conversation that I love. What’s more, they also play automatically to greet you with colorful bubbles, gorgeous confetti, or the ever-adorable heart. But then again, everything has two sides: pros and cons. And probably the biggest (if any) downside of these cool auto-play effects is that they can quickly eat into plenty of battery of your device. The story is the same for auto-playing video previews that could be quite helpful in letting you take a sneak peek but are also known to drain a lot of power. In situations where improving the battery life of your device matters more, you should disable auto-play message effects and video previews in iOS 13 on your iPhone.
When the auto-play is disabled, you need to tap on the replay button to play the effects. Everything else will remain the same. That said, let me help you get started with quick steps!
So, that’s the quick way you can prevent message effects and video previews from playing automatically. Of course, when you have plenty of cellular data to splash and if there is no battery life issue on your iPhone, you can keep them on. But when you want to save your limited bandwidth or can’t afford to let power-hungry features run unchecked, it’s wise to keep them quiet.
