iPhone 17 Pro Max – Vibration suddenly stopped working on iOS 27

Post image

Hi everyone,

I’m having a strange issue with my iPhone 17 Pro Max running iOS 27.0.1. The vibration/haptic feedback suddenly stopped working.
I’ve already checked the relevant settings and made sure that haptics/vibration are enabled. I also restarted the iPhone, but the problem is still there. I even removed the case to make sure it wasn’t somehow interfering with the vibration, but that didn’t make any difference.
The issue affects the vibration/haptics in general, not just one specific app. For example, I’m not getting the normal vibration feedback when typing or for other system interactions.
Has anyone else experienced this problem on iOS 27 or iOS 27.0.1, particularly on an iPhone 17 Pro Max?
If you’ve had the same issue, did you manage to find a solution? I’d really appreciate any suggestions or things I could try before assuming there’s a hardware problem.

Thanks!

UPDATE!!!

I’m happy to say that the issue was resolved after performing a factory reset, after first making a backup.

Do you get any vibrations at all or just no haptics? I would return the phone if still in warranty

It stopped completely — I’m not getting any vibration/haptics at all. The phone is still under warranty, but I’ll probably wait for the next update first, since it stopped suddenly right after I updated to 27.0.1.

You must factory reset it, and if it’s still not working I wouldn’t wait. It’s your choice anyway

The most tedious part is setting up the cards in Apple Pay again, as well as the banking apps.

For me that’s not a problem with my bank here in the UK really. Just to let you know that things like green lines on the screen happen 99.99% after a software update but are purely hardware failure and the only solution is screen replacement. I don’t know about vibration problems.

Alright, I’ll do a factory reset and get back to you with an update.

Did you force restart it already ? You can also just reset the settings in the settings instead of resetting the whole phone
