... is not working. Is this a known bug or am I the only one? Thanks.

11 Pro Max on iOS 13.1.3 but I believe this hasn’t worked at all for me since iOS 13

Edit*** Nevermind. It’s working but the vibration is extremely light. I used to be able to hear it vibrating on a desk. Not so much anymore.
 
I agree. I changed which "tone" is used for vibe and made sure everything was all the way up, but I sometimes miss it even with the phone in my pocket. I used to be able to hear it a room away.
 
This is killing me. I can hardly feel/hear the vibrate and usually always have my phone on vibrate so it doesn't ding all day and night

The vibration seems to be significantly stronger using the default settings on the iPhone 11 and pro max than the iPhone 11 pro. I’ve noticed this as well on my 11 pro right away. Sucks on this iPhone 11 pro.

Still light on the Pro Max. I would’ve missed an important call had I not physically looked at the phone as the call was coming in. It was sitting on my hard granite counter about 3 feet away from me. It’s no different than having it in silent w/o vibrate. Disappointing.
 
Are some here using vibrate to HEAR your iPhone? Odd, I always use it to NOT hear it, but rather feel it in my pocket. Seems like, you always learn something new.

Yes, I used it to hear my phone. The motor along with the vibration on a hard surface still produces sound waves enough to grab my attention but not ring annoyingly. Silent w/o vibration or DND is for not hearing it at all. The problem is, I can’t feel it either. Don’t know if it’s software or hardware related but it’s weak now.

Seems like that would normally be the idea, to feel it rather than hear it.

I believe the OP means that like many of us do is set the phone on a desk or aside table. So a strong vibration would alert one a call or incoming text with out disturbing anyone.

Exactly. I reiterated that a few posts above.
