<b>The hidden JS cost of builder motion effects</b>

<b>The hidden JS cost of builder motion effects</b>
That parallax scroll and entrance animation looks free in the editor. It isn't on mobile.

— Enabling Elementor Motion Effects loads its scroll-tracking JS sitewide, even on pages without animation.
— Each "sticky" element attaches a scroll listener; ten sticky widgets on one page means ten listeners firing per scroll.
— On mid-range Android, parallax forces layout recalcs that tank scroll FPS.

<b>Pros:</b> polished feel, good for premium-feel landing pages.
<b>Cons:</b> sitewide JS load, scroll jank, main-thread blocking on cheap phones.

<b>Best for:</b> use motion on hero sections of marketing pages only. Disable the feature globally and enable per-template, never sitewide by default.
