Vibration doesn’t work

Hi everyone


I’m trying to use vibration and sound for incoming calls not only from default phone but also from WhatsApp etc.


Unfortunately, sound is working but vibration not. How to solve that problem? Thank you.

If your iPhone doesn’t vibrate as expected, check your iPhone Sounds & Haptics settings:


Settings > Sounds & Haptics >

  • [Ring / Silent Mode Switch] Play Haptics in Ring Mode - set to ON
  • [Ring / Silent Mode Switch[ Play Haptics in Silent Mode - set to ON
  • System Haptics - set to ON


For each of your Sounds settings for which you require vibration, ensure that you have not set Vibration to OFF. For example:

Settings > Sounds & Haptics > [Sounds and Haptic Patterns] Ringtone > Vibration - ensure that you have not selected None
