How to completely disable the vibrations of your iPhone with iOS.

iPhone is one of the most used mobile devices today and its popularity is due in part thanks to the large number of options and functions. These devices have two methods to draw your attention to the user when they receive a notification, call, message, etc. The two ways that your iPhone has to get your attention are: 1 Through sound (tones) and 2 Through Vibrations.

By default, when we have the MUTE button disabled, our iPhone will emit both sound and vibration every time it receives a sore, or a notification is displayed. On the other hand, when we activate the mute button, the sound alerts will stop working, however the vibrating alerts will still be active..

This is ideal for most situations such as cinema, where we do not want to disturb when we receive calls or notifications on our iPhone. In this way, when we silence our iOS device, we can still know the alerts thanks to these vibrations .

However, many users do not vibrate when their device is silent. In other words, they do not want to receive any type of alert, whether sound or vibration, on their iPhone. Obviously iPhone allows the complete deactivation of vibrations , however you should keep in mind that by disabling the vibration of the entire iOS system, you will stop receiving vibrations completely, not only when the device is muted but also when the sound is activated..

Having said this, we show you how to completely silence your iPhone by completely deactivating vibrations in iOS :
