Weird clicking noise from iPhone 11

I’ve got the iPhone 11 and I don’t know if this is normal but I only noticed it the other day but there is a weird clicking sound when you use swipe up to get off the app you’re using and other things it vibrates but it also has a weird clicking sound is there any solutions?

Hi I also have this problem. Anyone with a solution please?


I use an iPhone 11 and I was on iOS 13 when I noticed the issue. I've been using my phone for a while now and tbh I'm not sure when the weird clicking started and I only noticed it today. I've since updated to iOS 13.3, hoping that it'd go away with the update but that didn't work, the weird clicks are still here.


Just to name a few examples, I hear a clicking sound (kinda like the keyboard clicks but a lot softer and subtle) when:

  • swiping up to toggle between apps whether I'm in an app or on the home screen
  • tapping on any app or function from within the control centre
  • tapping and holding on anything including like apps on the home screen or links in a browser
  • toggling any toggles such as within the settings app
  • zooming in and also zooming out of anything such as photos or a website in a browser


And like all the earlier users, nothing works. I've tried setting my phone to silent mode, turning system haptics off, resetting all my sounds and vibrations settings, turning off vibration in accessibility, performing a hard reset (volume up, volume down, press and hold lock button until apple logo comes back on), updating my iOS..


Can apple please fix this? Or if anyone has a solution, please share! The clicks are driving me nuts!
