Kompakt - Turn off vibration for alarms

Is it possible to turn off vibration on the alarms, either within settings or via adb? It completely defeats the purpose of having nice gentle wakeup sounds when they are accompanied by ZZZZT ZZZZT ZZZZT.

Yes, it is but not by default. Do you have developer options enabled?

You go into developer mode → search for accessibility (this is normally hidden!) → vibration & haptic strength–> notification vibration OFF, by default it’s on for notifications for some reason but not for ringing. I can now either toggle silent mode or the ringing mode so I’m happy.

Thanks, I do! I switched it off, but I assume this will also turn off vibrations for texts, calendar, etc. I’d prefer to keep those, but I guess I can live with this for now.

@lisa Our team is aware of these limitations & they are working on giving users more options.

Glad to hear that! @anon4838315 's tip didn’t work after all – it turned off vibrations for notifications, but not the alarm, which is the opposite of what I want.

Ah sorry I thought it would work. Sorry for waking you up this morning by a buzzer, despite thinking you’d be woken up by nature sounds :stuck_out_tongue: I must confess I use a Braun alarm clock which also has a crescendo alarm.

The adb command in this thread worked for alarms!

Hey great to hear! Now only nature can wake you up, though unfortunately I have noticed it still does not make it any easier at times :slight_smile:
