Most of the different apps on your device have their own combination of notification settings. This makes it easy for you to know which app has sent a notification without even looking at it. You may have even found that you can adjust the type of notification vibration for some apps. But switching all of those app notification settings to not vibrate can be tedious, especially if you have a lot of apps that are giving you notifications. Luckily there is a setting on the Google Pixel 4A that allows you to turn off haptics and vibrations entirely, by simply adjusting one button.
