Android devices come with a variety of features that can be helpful, but some can also be annoying. One such feature is “vibrate on tap”, which allows users to feel a vibration when they receive a notification or when they interact with an app. While this feature can be helpful for people who are constantly being alerted, it can also be disruptive for others. If you want to disable vibrate on tap, there are a few different ways to do so. The first option is to go to the Settings menu and select “Sound & notification”. From here, you will be able to toggle the “Haptic feedback” option off. Another option is to go into the Settings menu and select “Display”. From here, you will be able to toggle the “Haptic feedback” option off for individual apps. If you want to disable vibrate on tap for all apps at once, you can use a third party app like VibrateOnTap Free. ..
Of course, this is Android we’re talking about, so the process is going to vary depending on your specific model. That being said, you should be able to follow along loosely and find the necessary settings on your phone or tablet.
