Vibrate and haptic feedback not working on my new iPhone 6s

This happened twice already,my iPhone 6s I've just noticed that the vibrate or haptic feedback feature is no longer working on my iPhone 6s. And I tried putting the phone on silent and utilising the 3D Touch feature, but no luck. The 3D Touch does allow me to drill down into the features, but no haptic feedback.After I restart it's working normal again. Any clues? Is this a hardware issue or software issue

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.3.1

Did you use Skype app?

I have the very same issue and I am 100% certain that it's Skype iOS App that is causing this. I know this because if I restart the iPhone and no apps are running, the haptics are working properly (vibrating). Then, i launch Skype and make a call, and the haptic vibrations stop working. 100% repeatable.


Skype version 6.30.0.148 on iOS 10.2.1 (14D27).


Hopefully Skype will fix it. I have reported it here

Hi. Same problem here. I noticed that when I switch my iPhone 7+ to silent mode and use it for a while, after switching back, most of the time haptics won't work until restart. If I flip back to silent I get the haltics vibration but that is the only one working. No feedback when pulling down notification centre, setting alarms etc...


Apple, your crap is getting worse and worse, this is just one of many bugs I have exprienced... when S8 Note comes out and won't blow up I will be trying a new non-apple phone. Something I would consider quite impossible just 3 years ago... R.I.P. Steve Jobs. Cook is an accountant, not a vidionary...
