Don’t like the iPhone’s ringtone vibration?

By default, the iPhone vibrates whenever the ringtone is playing or ringing. If you don’t want your device to work in this manner, then you can quickly adjust its vibration settings. 

Heading back to the main Ringtone menu, you will see Vibration listed as the very first option. Simply tap on it to access the Vibration settings menu then select None from the given options. Your iPhone will then stop vibrating whenever the ringtone is playing.

You can always switch back to the original setting by heading back to the Ringtone menu then change the current selection to any of the available vibration options.

And that’s it!
