This. This is one of the most frustrating things ever. This occurred randomly and was not the effect of me dropping my phone. Every click of the home button, every notification, every taptic feedback I am greeted with this loud taser-like noise. Everyone within 20 feet or a room can hear it. This is even more frustrating since this is a relatively new phone, an iPhone 7 that I had purchased new when it came out in September 2016. Now many of you can just tell me to fix it, but shouldn’t this be something that shouldn’t have happened at all? And yes people will tell me to get it fixed under warranty. This happened after my phone turned over a year old, meaning it is not covered under warranty anymore, and I do not wish to spend over 100 dollars to get this remedied for something broken due to Apple’s fault. I am almost through with Apple for a multitude of reasons (buggy iOS, device throttling, quick obsoleteness, lack and removal of features (OLED, Headphone jack) just to name a few), and may seriously start looking for an android for the first time for my next device, with this issue contributing to a sizeable portion as to why I’m done with Apple.

Apple quoted you over $100 to fix that?

Just a guesstimate, not far off from what it costs to get the screen fixed or something like that.

Yes, then it requires I turn on Do not disturb, and lo and behold, I don’t get any text alerts, or even phone calls without me checking

iPhones don’t let you turn of vibrations without turning off all other notifications? Wow. That’s just stupid design.

There should be a menu in settings that’s called “Sounds and Haptics,” look towards the bottom of there and you can turn off your haptics. I just checked on my 7 Plus and it’s there. Didn’t require me to turn anything else off.

Honestly I would be super nice and ask them if they would fix it out of good will. You could even convince them that you think it’s unsafe in some way l (even though we know it isn’t) and guilt them into fixing it for free. Their policies are flexible and a manager can override a repair very easily especially in a case like this. Me and others I know have had great luck with Apple and devices being out of warranty.

Hmm, I look like i’m still in high school, and tried this just to get a charging cable fixed, and was turned away a few times
