discussion about haptic feedback

They turn on when on Silent mode, or the phone screen facing down. For watch is on for alarm and sounds. For notifications it gives me a haptic on the watch. Long live cats.

I’ve turned off a lot of the VoiceOver sounds in favour of having the haptics alone. Rightly or wrongly, I feel things are faster without the click sounds, but like the little haptics.

I can't function without the haptics. I think they might slow things down a little bit, but they're too useful to turn off. I did have them turned down a little bit at one time but I prefer them set to max.

I don't type a lot on my phone since I have a computer for that, but I am concerned about security, and haptic feedback is one of the effective ways that I take advantage of to interact with my phone and protect myself from people eavesdropping when I have to enter authentication credentials in public. If someone texts me and I have to reply urgently I just call them on the phone, otherwise I just wait until I get back home to reply on either of my Macs.

My iPhone stays home almost all the time since I share the same cellular plan with my Apple Watch and is also configured for Apple Pay, so unless I'm traveling out of the city I live in, I only take my watch with me. My iPhone is currently serving mostly as my Internet router, and will be replaced by my iPad pretty soon which already has its own unlimited data plan.

I just keep all of them on. I kept all the sounds on too.

Sounds are off, hands are off, haptics are on for system actions only!

I am a haptics and sounds all the way up. I was going to turn down the haptic intensity. I think I may have tried that for a little while, but then I realized I could feel it better when it was all the way on so I just, I’ve left it like that. I also did the same thing for my ringtone and alert sounds. I have a vibration pattern as synchronize for all of those.

What I find interesting is when they first came out i wasn't sure I liked them. Now if for any reason haptics disappear I seriously miss them.

Under Sounds & Haptics, I have keyboard feedback set to sound only.
Under VoiceOver Sounds & Haptics, I have haptics on for everything that can have haptics, except for the, 'No Item Discovered', option. for those that do not know, that is the little, "tick, tick, tick, sound you get when you're navigating your screen, and VO cannot find anything. I have disabled haptics for that.
Just personal preferences. 🤷

Definitely, I love the discussions like this that are about personal preference topics. I find used to be the most fun topics. Obviously the other ones are necessary, but I think these are the most fun. I just left all the sounds and haptics on in the non-voiceover ones and in the voiceover ones so I’ve got the regular lock sound on. I’ve got the keyboard feedback haptics on the sound and then all the voiceover ones are on and even for mailing tones and alerts. I have the volume 100% for those two.

A little over a decade ago, when iOS did not have haptics? It's interesting to have a discussion like this now, considering there was a time when the iPhone had no haptics to speak of. Save for the vibration mode when the ringer was silent. 😊📱

I don't have my phone on vibrate unless it's in silent mode, and I also have no item found turned off.
