A13 Erroneously Vibrating Due To NFC

Over the last few days, my A13 has started intermittently vibrating for a short duration during light movements and impacts. According to the Nice Catch app, the vibration is caused by the NFC app and is labelled as "Hardware feedback", and when the vibrations occur it resets the keyboard overlay while typing and when watching YouTube it puts my phone back to my home screen (and also apparently pauses YouTube music which I just found out). This happens despite being nowhere near any contactless pay-points or similar devices.

While disabling NFC in settings or from the quick access pull-down menu prevents the vibrations and its intererence with my phone, it's cumbersome and inconvenient and not a permanent fix for the issue. I remember my previous phone had a similar issue at the end of its lifespan, is there a meaningful solution to this problem or is it just "over"?

Do you have a case with your debit/credit card inside it? If so your phone is scanning your card

I do not, the only thing in my case is my phone.

In the support section of this app, run the diagnostics. It might just say your nfc has a problem
