Haptic feedback?

[bartfliet]

Hello,

I just purchased the galaxy A3 2016. I've been looking to enable haptic feedback, though I am unable to find the option? I've looked online and it always says that it should be in "settings" and then "sound and vibration" but there is no option anywhere to be seen to enable haptic feedback? Am I looking in the wrong place?

Hey Bartfliet,

Congratulations on your new Samsung Galaxy A3!

You've indeed been told to look in the wrong place. You can find the option to enable haptic feedback for when you're typing under Settings --> My Device --> Language and Input. Press the little gear icon under Keyboards and Input Methods and you'll find various options, including haptic feedback and the vibration intensity.

Also, did you know that there is now a Samsung UK Community for your questions in English? You can find it here: eu.community.samsung.com/?category.id=uk

I hope this information has been of help.

There's no gear icon in that location . ..

 I saw that somewhere online too, though no gear icon on my device . ..

I'm very sorry, I had the information of the older model on my screen. Apparently, for the Galaxy A3 2016 model, there is no support for haptic feedback. I'm not sure about the reasons not to support haptic feedback, so it may or may not be added in later updates.

Of course . .. makes perfect  sense to give newer phones less functionality . ..
