Hi all, hoping someone might be able to help me.
I've got my new Watch 7 Ultra, and overall I'm very happy. But. Something is driving me mad!
It keeps vibrating for no apparent reason, no notifications, nothing.
It does a single vibrate, and then around 2 seconds later another 3 vibrations over around 1 second.

I've been through all the settings I can think of (including turning off connection alerts), but it's still doing it!

Can anyone PLEASE help???

Matt

Have you tried a factory reset. That may sort it out for you I had similar problem with my watch 6

I haven't, because of it being a bit of a faff to re-set it all up.

I'm hoping that it's a simple setting that I don't know about 🤣

Fingers crossed, but I didn't find it hard to reset mine and was worth it in the end. But hopefully it is something simple.. hope you find the answer your looking for.

Found on the internet, these vibrations are apparently happening because of Google Maps mirroring being turned on. It helped others to toggle these settings on and off and restarting the watch.

I also had this vibration pattern happen a couple of times in the past 24 hours, one time while the watch was charging. This started after I accidentally used Google Maps on the phone in the bicycle mode (which has mirroring enabled), instead of the car mode and my watch started the mirroring mode. Prior to that, the watch didn't vibrate randomly at all.

I have the same issue when pressing the Quick button which is supposed to start Samsung Health. The screen goes black for a moment, I get o single vibration, the screen returns to clock face, then 3 vibrations a few seconds layer. The Health app does not open. If I change the action of the quick button from Health to torch for  example, it works like a charm

Spoke with Samsung support yesterday and they told me to try everything that I'd already tried snd then told me to factory reset.
So this morning I've done that (again). I'll confirm if this has worked after a couple of days
