iPhone Not Vibrating After Update to ios 17

After updating to iOS 17 my iPhone 13 Pro Max no longer vibrates when I receive a text or other notification. Steps I've taken:

  • Verified Focus/DND is off.
  • Verified vibrate is on. Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Vibration > On.
  • Verified Haptics are on. Settings > Sounds & Haptics > System Haptics > On
  • Verified Hapitcs Play in Silent Mode. Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Haptics > Always Play
  • Verified Haptics are on for Texts. Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Text Tone > Haptics > Heartbeat
  • Restarted iPhone.
  • Updated iPhone to iOS 17.02
  • Restarted iPhone
  • Reset All Settings


Nothing works. It doesn't matter if my phone is in Silent mode or not. My vibrate motor works when I test it by creating new vibrations. It also gives haptic feedback when I use my keyboard. The only time it doesn't work is when I get a text message, call, or any other alert (i.e. Snapchat message). Before updating everything worked fine.

If you have a Apple Watch and updated to the most recent OS, you will only receive notifications on your watch per support:


This is a new feature from the last software :/

Notifications appear on your Apple Watch or iPhone, but not both.

 

If your iPhone is unlocked, you'll receive notifications on your iPhone instead of your Apple Watch.

If your iPhone is locked or asleep, you'll receive notifications on your Apple Watch, unless your Apple Watch is locked.


you can see that the information is true in this article from Apple: Notifications on your Apple Watch - Apple Support


You can provide feedback using this link and select watch because this was a watch update: Feedback - Watch - Apple
