Disable new text vibrate when unlocked?

Someone needs to address this question. This is a gigantic nuissance, especially when dealing with those people who don't know how to consolidate messages into a single text (and as such send seven one-line texts in a row). Please address as soon as possible.

This workaround doesn't provide the functionality desired. We're looking for the phone to understand that buzz/sound alerts are not necessary when unlocked, and represent a significant annoyance. This is true in any quiet room setting.

Banner alerts when unlocked are fine and would provide sufficient notification when the phone is unlocked, in the scenario you provided.

I would like to disable vibrate when I'm currently in a texting session. It seems silly to be notified of a new text while I am in the texting conversation and looking at the screen

The iPhone doesn't know if you are looking at the screen or not.

What if you text soemone then set teh phone down?

You can turn off vibration for messages (Settings > Sounds > Text Tone > Vibration - None).,

Don't know if this will turn it off when you are in the Messages app.

There is no deficiency.

There is no deficiency.

The phone vibrates unnecessarily, over and over again in the middle of text conversation

It vibrates to let you know you have received a text message.

This is clear evidence of poor use case analysis and deficiency in design

It's clear evidence that you don't know what you are on about or how to use simple consumer electronic devices.

Expect what you want but I highly doubt your "issue" will even be considered since it is a non-issue.

Turn off vibrate.

Have you told Apple what you want via the link above? Personally, I don't care but that's what it is for.

Apple does not monitor these forums. This is a user to user forum. I have provided the only way to get feedback to Apple regarding any desire to have something addressed.

Yes there is. The phone vibrates unnecessarily, over and over again in the middle of text conversation

Ad hominem attack dismissed

This issue remains open for resolution

We expect an update for iOS 6, and improved use case analysis for iOS 7

This deficiency has still not been remediated. We need an update soon

The phone continues to reflect poor design and vibrate out of control. Like a wild gibbon

You should sell this deficient product and get somethiong you want. and that works the way you would like.

You could buy a new phone and still have money left over for gas and dinner.

Did you ever find out if there is a fix/ workaround for this? Or a new thread? I am on 5s iOS 7 and still have this problem.
