Hi all,

I was hoping someone could help me with a strange issue - or just to check if anyone else is having the same problem!

My new S21 Ultra is randomly vibrating for some reason. As shown in the screenshot, I've downloaded Nice Catch and it seems that Accessibility is causing it, but I have no idea what it is inside Accessibility that's causing or how to turn it off.

I don't think I've made any changes within the settings, but any suggestions to solve it would be much appreciated!

Can anyone help? It's driving me crazy!

Thanks!

Yepp, same here! My S21 Ultra is vibrating randomly and I have no idea what causes it. Hopefully there will be a fix.

EDIT: I found something interesting that might be causing it. If you go into Settings > Notifications > Advanced Settings > Notification reminder and turn that off. If you're a guy like me that dont wanna swipe away the message, so the phone will just spam you intill you do. Hopefully this will help.

My wife was having the same issues after the most recent update. She turned off her NFC and that seemed to fix the issue. She has a case that carries cards in the back and the NFC kept trying to read them. Hope this helps.

Under ACCESSIBILITY settings, have a look at INTERACTION AND DEXTERITY. I'm guessing your issue is caused by a setting in there. On my phone (Note9), all settings are switched off. if you have anything switched on in there, turn it off to see if it makes any difference.

Thank you. It was driving me crazy. I never opted in for this and it's incredibly annoying. Your solution worked for me.

I don't have notification reminder. I have a galaxy s21. When it first did it, it was on snap chat and I kept getting an icon that showed a location pin. I turned locations off and it still does it but I don't get the pin.

It vibrates once everytime I open an app, but on snap chat it just doesn't stop. It's so annoying

Why would they do this?

Same issue since this morning and all pictures or videos I send on whatsapp or want to put on instagram story are changing to a weird colour, not sure if it’s related... maybe there are several bugs in last updates
