Apple Watch S-3 is not vibrating for Incoming calls

Hi,

My Apple Watch Series 3 is not vibrating for Incoming calls, recently I got updated to 6.1 version then after its not vibrating. and I have seen most of the people are saying that "“Haptic Strength”  should be high or middle, First of all I didn't find Haptic strength Option. I just checked, even i didn't find “Prominent Haptics” option as well. but vibration is working for Notifications like messages and etc...but not for calls.

Can anybody help me out ???

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 6

Toggle on Haptic Alerts

You have the choice of default or Prominent


iPhone>My Watch>Phone>Haptic Toggle this on

Toggle custom on then you will see the alerts under that you'll see ringtone and haptic, make sure that they are both toggled on

IF you go to the Watch app on the iPhone, go to Sounds & Haptics. From there, make sure that Haptic Alerts is turned on, and you can also tap Prominent and it should show a checkmark.


As far as the watch vibrating for calls, this will only happen if the iPhone is locked. Check you notification settings in the Watch app on the iPhone to ensure you have it set for Haptic alerts, and that you have it set to Mirror your iPhone or Custom at your discretion.
