Many things on your iPhone 13 can cause it to vibrate.
Whether you get a text message notification, there’s an emergency alert, or your alarm goes off, there are multiple ways to trigger this action.
But if you don’t like it and have tried to shut it off on all of the menus where you can find that option, you might be wondering if there is a simpler solution.
Our tutorial will show you how to turn off vibration on iPhone 13 when you don’t want anything to cause your device to vibrate any longer.

Our guide continues below with additional information on disabling iPhone 13 vibration, including pictures of these steps.
When you get an alert or a notification on your iPhone, the device can make a sound and/or vibrate to let you know.
If you often have your iPhone on silent, then you may really rely on that vibration to know that a text message or new notification has come through.
But it’s possible that you may not like the phone’s vibration, or maybe you never put your phone on silent and find the vibration to be more of a problem than an aid.
You can turn off all vibration on your iPhone by going to Settings > Accessibility > Touch > then turning off the Vibration option.
If you have searched for a way to do this before, then you likely found the “Sounds & Haptics” menu where you can customize individual types of notifications, including setting the vibration for a notification to “None.”
But even if you make that change for every option on that menu it will only go so far.
