I love waking up to peaceful sounds to start my day off right. Thanks to Apple's reluctance to give a "no vibration" option on their alarms, and also thanks to the 6's chainsaw of a vibration motor, it looks like I'll be startled out of sleep every morning. Sigh.
Got a tip for us?

Turn vibrate off in your sound settings before you go to sleep. I've been doing that a while myself even before the odd 6 motor.
This... I use a very soft/thick mouse pad, and it absorbs all of the vibration.

I swear, only people that buy anything Apple post threads like this.
I've never heard of someone being startled out of sleep by a phone vibration.
Thanks for the laugh.
I was going to say that my 5s doesn't do this, but then I realized that the vibrate function is just so weak that it isn't noticeable.
I'd rather have the stronger tactile alert that the 6 and 6 plus have, and then I'd just use something else as an alarm.

DND is a good option as well, stops interruptions from notifications and leaves the screen off if they do come in. Can set it for a time period during the night, and let certain people call through it anyways if it is important.

You are most welcome, my good man.
