I'm really fed up with the fact that while im on a call my iphone vibrates everytime I receive a message, whatsapp, etc.

I really can't believe that whenever the sensor detects that you are on a call with your ear next to the iphone, it just vibrates and there is NO option to disable this!

Some people will say: just disable vibration, but its not the solution because I use my iPhone 99% of the time in silent+vibrate only, and if I disable the vibration I would need to have it on sound.

I see that this issue doesn't happen on android, and I have seen so many threads like this one, with countless of people just looking for the same answer where apple doesnt do anything.
 
ive never really put that much thought into it but it doesn't bother me obviously. Much really deep issues with the os that bother me than that and id assume the majority of the population aren't too bothered by it.

For me it's really annoying to have my ear vibrating 3 or 4 times every time i'm on a call, and apple could fix it so easily, it's very very bothering

Same here. The phone isn't perfect, nothing is tbh. I'm sure I'll come across some short comings but so far there's nothing that really irritates me.

Apple doesn’t do anything cause it’s a non issue.
 
What if apple lets you choose if you want the vibration while on a call like android does?

It's irritating

Maybe get an Apple Watch for you to receive notifications, and then you can switch the vibrations off on your phone.

yeah now i need another device just to be able to switch off vibration.... apple style
 
I would want it to vibrate so I know I got a message while Im on a call. Its there for a reason.
If you dont like it then go in and disable the vibration for that app.
That's not even close to the most annoying thing in the iPhone. Personally for you it might be.
 
Most annoying thing for me is iTunes and their new video player.

Yesterday, I tried putting videos for the first time on my iPhone and got the "need to download video player or TV app" message. It took some time, splitting hairs, and the app is terrible to play them with very basic features. It's not like MX Player Pro on Android. It used to be so easy but they make it so complicated now.
