March update Google Pixel 6 gives problems with vibration

It’s the weekend: good vibrations! Not if you have a Google Pixel 6. The vibrations of that phone have decreased significantly since the March update that appeared earlier this week. We previously wrote that the message box app no ​​longer worked well after the update, but now something is added.

Vibrations on your phone

The vibrations of the device when it is set to vibrate are so weak that you as a user do not even notice that you are being called or receive a notification. It seems that it has only weakened when it comes to a call or notification, even if you have the vibration intensity at maximum. Vibrations for reasons other than notifications and calls would vibrate at full strength.

On Reddit, several users share their problems and concerns about this problem, although there are also people who have less problems with the lack of the firmer vibrations. What is worrisome is that these problems in themselves are not new. It was noticed during beta testing and seems to have been reported then, but apparently Google missed this or couldn’t fix it before the real, stable update is due to roll out.

At the same time, Google would have indicated in the changelog that the problem with the haptic feedback would be solved: was that a different problem, or was it not completely solved properly? That update turns out to be not completely stable and to cause some problems and that is a shame, because it is not exactly the first time that problems arise after an update of the latest Google devices.

There was previously a problem with the Google Assistant that called people by itself and after a subsequent update there was the problem of mobile reception. This time there seems to be a new problem after downloading the update. Hopefully not all Pixels will be affected, but if you don’t want to miss calls and notifications, make sure to turn your sound on as much as possible (and be in a place where that’s acceptable too).

Do you have a Google Pixel 6 and do you run into this problem? We are very curious what you think: leave it below this article.
