Are you tired of your iPhone vibrating and buzzing every time you receive a notification like a new call, text, email, etc? Do you find the haptic feedback annoying and distracting? If you answered yes to either of these questions, then this article is for you. Below, I’ll show you how to disable all of the vibrations and haptics on your iPhone with a simple trick.

Turning off all vibrations and haptics on your iPhone can be a bit of a hassle if you have to go into the Sounds & Haptics settings and manually disable each one. In this article, I will show you how you can ensure that your iPhone never vibrates for anything using a simple trick. This is the only way to turn off all of the vibrations and haptics at once.

How to Turn off vibrations and haptics on iPhone via Sounds & Haptics Settings

The traditional way of turning off vibrations and haptics on your iPhone is to go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and turn off vibration for each specific option, such as Ringtone, Text Tone, New Mail, etc. You can also turn off System Haptics, which is the subtle vibration feedback you get when you interact with certain parts of the iOS interface, such as the keyboard or Control Center.

This method works well, but it can be a bit time-consuming to turn off vibration for each specific option. Additionally, you may miss an option or forget to turn off vibration for a certain app, which can be frustrating.

Accessibility method for turning off all vibrations and haptics on iPhone

It can be time consuming to turn off vibrations and haptics individually. Fortunately, Apple has developed an accessibility feature that makes it easier to turn off all vibrations and haptics on your iPhone.

To disable all of the vibrations and haptics on your iPhone, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to Settings > Accessibility.
  2. Scroll down to the section labeled ”Touch.”
  3. Find a toggle switch labeled ”Vibration.” Simply toggle this switch off, and all vibrations and haptics on your iPhone will be disabled.

It’s that easy! Now you won’t feel any vibrations or haptics on your iPhone, no matter what app you’re using or what action you’re performing. This will also cancel all emergency warning vibrations for earthquakes, tsunamis and so on. You won’t feel any haptic feedback. This is a global setting. In other words, this will override all of your individual notification settings. For example, if you have vibration on for new emails, this will override that.

Benefits of turning off all vibrations and haptics on iPhone

Turning off all vibrations and haptics on your iPhone can provide several benefits, including:

  • Improved battery life: Vibrations and haptics use up a considerable amount of battery life. By turning them off, you can extend the battery life of your iPhone, which can be particularly helpful when you’re on the go.
  • Distraction-free environment: If you find that vibrations and haptics are distracting or annoying, turning them off can create a more peaceful and focused environment. This can be especially helpful if you’re working or studying and need to concentrate.
  • Better sleep: If you keep your iPhone near you while you sleep, vibrations and haptics can disturb your sleep and make it challenging to fall back asleep. By turning them off, you can enjoy a better night’s sleep without interruptions.

Conclusion

Turning off all vibrations and haptics on your iPhone is a simple and easy process. While the traditional method of going through each individual option can be time-consuming, the accessibility method allows you to disable all vibrations and haptics with just one toggle switch. So go ahead and give it a try — you might be surprised at how much more peaceful your iPhone feels without all those pesky vibrations!
