yesterday apple ported over the spatial/warping app opening animation from ipados 26 to ios 26... and it looks neat!

perhaps it could also work well on macos 26 as a window restoring/maximizing animation?

here's a rough idea, ik the animations aren't the best here but yeah...

@zeealeid I misread your post as meaning “external display windowing in iOS 26!”

(Still, it’s only a matter of time…)

@zeealeid Looks like the son of the gennie and zoom animation effect.

@zeealeid Nice demo but that would be the thing I would disable, too distracting, like the genie effect 🫨

@zeealeid honestly I think the animations are pretty good actually, I like it

@zeealeid Pls pls pls that’d be so nice. I use the Suck effect because it’s a nice in between of genie and scale, but it does look a bit unfinished. The spatial warp would be so much better!

@zeealeid I love it—it’s fast and stable like the Scale effect on macOS, but more lively
