Vibration response is short vibration smartphone, which occurs when the user interacts with buttons or keys on the screen. Vibration feedback allows you to understand by touch whether a key has been pressed or not.
But this function does not seem useful to everyone. Some users find vibration feedback annoying and want to turn it off.
In this article we will look at just such a situation. Here you will learn how to disable vibration feedback on Android when typing on the keyboard, as well as when pressing system buttons.
How to disable vibration response of keys when typing
If you are annoyed by the vibration response of the keys when typing, and you want to disable it, then you need to go to Android Settings and open the “Language and Input” section. Various settings for languages and input methods will be available here. You need to go to the “Virtual Keyboard” subsection.
After this, you need to select the virtual keyboard that you use to type. In our case, this is Google Keyboard.
And disable the “Vibrate when pressing keys” feature. By disabling this feature, you will get rid of the annoying vibration response when you press keys on the keyboard.
Here you can also change the strength of vibration when you press keys, enable or disable the sound when you press keys, change the volume of the sound when you press a key, and also change other settings related to the operation of the selected virtual keyboard.
Please note that if you switch to a different keyboard, you will need to turn off vibration feedback again. Because it is configured separately for each keyboard.
How to disable vibration feedback on Android
In addition to the vibration response when pressing keys on the keyboard, there is a vibration response in the Android operating system itself. It triggers when you press any on-screen button, including the Back, Home, and Applications buttons. If you want to disable this system vibration response, then you need to open Android Settings and go to the Sound settings section.
In this section, all basic settings related to sound will be available. You need to scroll to the very end of these settings and find the “Other sounds” subsection there.
After opening the “Other Sounds” subsection, you need to disable the “Vibration Feedback” function.
Also in this subsection of the settings you can enable or disable such functions as “Dialing sound”, “Screen lock sound”, “Battery status signals” and “Tap sound”.
Vibration is one of the ways to notify the user about a call, SMS message or other event that requires his attention. But modern smartphones use vibration not only for this. Modern smartphones also use vibration to confirm the user's tap on the screen. This feature is called vibration response. If you don't like your smartphone vibrating when you receive a call or when you tap on the screen, then you've come to the right place. In this material you will learn how to turn off vibration on Android, as well as how to turn off the vibration response when you tap on the smartphone screen.
How to turn off vibration on Android when there is an incoming call
In order to turn off vibration for an incoming call on Android, you need to open the settings and go to the “Sound” section.
After this, a window with sound settings will open in front of you. To disable vibration for an incoming call, uncheck the box next to the “Vibrate on call” function.
In some firmware this function may be called differently. For example, “vibrate on call” or “vibrate on incoming call”.
How to turn off vibration when typing on Android
If you want to disable vibration when typing (vibration feedback), then to do this, open the settings and go to the “Language and input” section. A list of keyboards that are installed on your Android smartphone will be displayed here. In order to turn off vibration when typing, you need to click on the gear icon opposite your keyboard.
After clicking on the gear image, the keyboard settings should open in front of you. Here you need to find the “Vibration response of keys” function and turn it off.
You can also enable or disable other keyboard-related features on this page. For example, you can turn off the key sound, the zoom when you press a key, and also add a new text input language.
Unfortunately, in the system settings of Android phones there is no built-in function for adjusting the vibration level, but only a checkbox to turn it on/off.
If your device buzzes too much, the vibration level can be reduced using the "Customize Vibrancy" application, which allows you to configure not only the desired level, but also the vibration mode separately for: incoming calls, picking up the handset, ending a call, minute interval, incoming SMS, as well as connecting/disconnecting to the Internet.
The application has a huge number of vibration presets, which in most cases are more than enough. If you want an original vibration, the application provides two ways to create it: recording by pressing and translating Morse code.
Tap recording
In touch recording mode, the vibration amplitude changes depending on the position of your finger on the recording sensor. The higher the finger, the more intense the vibration. Also in the settings you can set a fixed vibration strength regardless of the position of your finger. To start the recording process, touch the sensor on the screen. To stop recording, press the stop button under the sensor. The recorded vibration can be played back by pressing the play button.
Morse code translation
In Morse code translation mode, letters typed on the keyboard are converted into sequences of short and long vibrations (dots and dashes). The vibration level and duration of "dots and dashes" can be adjusted in the settings. For example, let's create a vibration similar to that for an incoming call on Nokia phones. To do this, type the symbol “O” and “Space”. The result should be 3 long vibrations (three dashes) and a short waiting interval.
Let's save it under the name "Nokia" and set it to an incoming call.
If you use Meeting mode a lot, the app may change it to Silent mode, but the vibration will actually be active as it is controlled through the Customize Vibrancy app.
If you want to disable vibration altogether (either individually or all at once), use the option when selecting vibrations or the general setting in the "Customize Vibrancy" application instead of the Android system settings, as the application takes precedence.
And finally, during an incoming call, the “Customize Vibrancy” application icon may pop up on the screen in the notification area. It can be disabled in the program settings, but the program may be unstable. Therefore, it is better to disable notifications through the system application settings in Android by clicking on "Customize Vibrancy" in the application list and unchecking the "Enable notifications" checkbox.
For many people, vibration feedback is very annoying, especially when connecting during a call, so users feel the need to turn it off. We will look at how to remove vibration on Android when making calls and typing on the keyboard. For illustrative examples These operations will be performed on Lenovo and Samsung phones.
Turn off vibration during incoming calls and screen touches
When a call is received on the phone, the smartphone (depending on established mode) plays a melody, and can give a vibration signal when connecting to a subscriber. You can disable it in the settings. Depending on the model and version of android, this item the menu can be located in different places.
Let's look at how to remove vibration on a Lenovo phone. To do this, follow a couple of simple steps:
In most Lenovo phones with Android 4.2.1 and higher, vibration is turned off using the method described above.
On Samsung phones this is done in a similar way, however on some versions of Android these settings are located in different places. If you are the owner of a smartphone from this South Korean brand, and want to remove vibration during connection, use the following instructions:
By following these simple steps, your smartphone will never vibrate again when connecting to a caller or when touching the screen.
Disable vibration in typing mode
Every day a person types several thousand characters of text on the keyboard of his smartphone. Some users find the constant vibration feedback very annoying. Besides, regular work motor leads to accelerated battery discharge. To disable vibration feedback on phones from Lenovo, you need to:
On most Lenovo models with the Android 4.x.x operating system, this instruction allows you to disable key vibration.
For Samsung phones that support vibration when you press the keyboard, the instructions are almost identical:
- Go to the “Settings” of your mobile phone.
- Click Options (or My Device).
- In the menu, go to “Language and input”.
- Select "Samsung Keyboard".
- Turn off vibration in settings.
These steps will remove vibration feedback when typing. On the same page you can make other keyboard settings; in particular, you can turn off key sounds.
If for some reason you were unable to disable the vibration response of an incoming call, you can try to do this using a third-party program. One of them is called Customize Vibrancy.
The main purpose of this program is to set a specific vibration “melody” for each action, for example, ending a call, connecting to Wi-Fi or a new SMS message. But you can also turn off vibration completely. To do this you need:
In some cases, the source of vibration may be a third-party application, for example, Odnoklassniki or VKontakte. When you receive a message or any other notification, your phone may automatically vibrate despite the settings. To disable it, you should do the following in this application:
- Go to the application settings.
- Select the item “Alerts”, “Notifications” or similar, depending on the context.
- If there is a “Vibration” option, turn it off.
