iPhone doesn't vibrate on silent mode

My phone doesn’t vibrate in silent when I get a phone call. Texts vibrate just fine. Phone rings when not in silent. I just want this phone to vibrate when it gets a phone call in silent mode. If hit every switch from every forum I can find.

  1. Check "Play Haptics in Silent Mode":
    1. Open Settings.
    2. Go to Sounds & Haptics.
    3. Scroll down to the Ringtone AND Alert section.
    4. Make sure the toggle for Play Haptics in Silent Mode is turned on (Ticked). The pic below is self-explanatory
  2. Verify Vibration Pattern for Calls:
    1. In Sounds & Haptics, you might have accidentally set the vibration pattern for calls to "None."
    2. Under the Ringtones section, tap on Ringtone.
    3. At the top, you'll see Vibration. Make sure it's not set to None. Choose a vibration pattern you prefer.
  3. Accessibility Setting:
    1. In some cases, the general vibration setting in Accessibility might be turned off.
    2. Go to Settings > Accessibility.
    3. Scroll down and tap on Touch.
    4. Ensure the toggle for Vibration is turned on (green).
