Hello,
Anyone else having issues with their iPhone not vibrating when notifications or calls come in? iPhone 12 pro max here on 14.2.1. Tried searching the internet but all I could see was to turn on vibrations and haptics under Sounds and also Accessibility- which I’ve done. But turning these settings on and off results in vibrations working for a few minutes and then they stop. I’m thinking this might be a software issue?

Go to Settings> General> Accessibility> Vibration, and check that Yes is written next to Vibration or better yet, click on the tab directly to make sure the button is activated (in green). If it isn't, activate it and everything should be fine. :apple:

Thank you. Not sure what happened but I ended up restoring the phone and setting up as new. Maybe ~13 years of iPhone backups something got corrupte along the way.

anyway, after the restore phone is working perfectly.
