Google’s next major iteration, Android 15, is actively in the developing stage and is expected to stop phones from vibrating while getting a lot of notifications.
Google has recently made Android 15 Beta 1.2 available to download, which has brought some crucial improvements. Now reports are revealing that Android 15 will bring new functionality to enhance the users’ experience, which will force the phone to stop vibrating while getting a lot of notifications.
Android 15’s notification cooldown reduces the volume of repeated notifications from the same application. However, at the moment, it doesn’t stop the phone from vibrating for each notification. However, we anticipate a future update to address this issue.
Speculation suggests that the reporter, while exploring the latest Android 15 Beta 1.2 update, successfully restored the notification cooldown settings page (Settings >> Notifications >> Notification cooldown), which Google had previously hidden from users in Android 15 Beta 1. According to the reports, a new toggle has been added that was previously unavailable: “vibrate when unlocked.” According to the description, this toggle makes it so the device will “only vibrate when [the] screen is unlocked.”
By authorizing this toggle, the phone will avoid vibrating while receiving a ton of successive notifications from the same application. Notification cooldown silences Android 15 repeated notifications from a similar application, but it is possible that it could still vibrate your phone for each one. Apart from this, there’s an option to disable vibration only when your phone is unlocked.
Users will get the power to enable “vibrate when unlocked” for peace and silence. They can disable both “vibrate when unlocked” and notification cooldown entirely to receive all notifications with vibration. Users can change the cooldown to apply only to conversations if they want silence for repetitive chats but notifications for other applications.r
