Hi there,
If you want to set your notifications to vibrate only without any sound on your iPhone 12 Pro Max running iOS 16.6, you can follow these steps:
Set Notifications to Vibrate Only
1. Check Ring/Silent Switch: Make sure the Ring/Silent switch on the left side of your iPhone is set to Silent (the switch should show orange). This will mute all sounds.
2. Enable Vibrate on Silent:
• Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics.
• Ensure that Vibrate on Silent is turned on.
3. Disable Notification Sounds:
• Go to Settings > Notifications.
• Select an app for which you want to set notifications to vibrate only.
• Tap on Sounds.
• Select None.
4. Customize Vibration:
• Still within the Notifications settings for the specific app, tap Vibration.
• Choose a vibration pattern or create a custom vibration by tapping Create New Vibration.
Ensure Vibration Is Working
1. Test Vibration:
• Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics.
• Tap on Ringtone and then Vibration.
• Select a vibration pattern and see if your iPhone vibrates.
2. Restart Your iPhone: Sometimes a simple restart can fix issues with vibrations not working as expected.
3. Check Do Not Disturb:
• Ensure Do Not Disturb is not enabled, or if it is, make sure Vibrate is enabled under Settings > Focus > Do Not Disturb.
By following these steps, your iPhone should only vibrate for notifications without making any sound. If you continue to experience issues, consider updating to the latest iOS version or contacting Apple Support for further assistance.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
