No Vibrating on Silent on all apps and Annoying notification pop-up when turning volume all the way down

What is this? Every time I turn my volume all the way down, this annoying thing appears with a really short vibration. On top of that, my phone isn’t vibrating on Silent (or possibly even when on Ring) for certain apps, and I really need it to work properly. Any suggestions?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 14

Hello HaplessHaptics,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. It looks like your iPhone won't vibrate, and we'd be happy to look into this with you.


To get started, please navigate to: Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Vibration. If it's not enabled, tap to enable it, and let us know if that helps.


If vibration is already enabled, please try the following steps:


  • Go to: Settings > Sounds & Haptics, and turn off both "Vibrate on Ring" and "Vibrate on Silent"
  • Restart your iPhone: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
  • Go to: Settings > Sounds & Haptics, and turn on "Vibrate on Ring" and "Vibrate on Silent"
  • Test for vibration with the Silent switch on and off.

Hi HaplessHaptics,


Thanks for getting back to us with those additional details. It looks like you're getting a pop up showing the ringer volume, and your device vibrates when you turn the volume all the way down, and we'd like to help.


From here we want to restore the device to factory settings (without the backup you will lose data. So verify that you have a newly set up backup)

Set it up as new and test before restoring to see if the issue continues there, here's how to restore:

If the issue persists afterwards, please contact Apple for further assistance.
