I updated Voyager from Play Store today and now there's no gesture vibration (like when swiping to upvote/downvote, etc.). It was working fine before. Can the dev please add a toggle to enable/disable vibration in settings? Edit: Just found out the toggle is present. It's enabled but there's no vibration.

There is a toggle for haptic feedback in the settings

Oops, my bad. Haven't seen that. Also, it's enabled and yet there's no haptic feedback.

What's your Android phone model? I'm trying to tweak it so it's more subtle and it works well on my Pixel test device, but different Android devices have different haptic engines with different strengths and it's quite annoying to tune :(

Other apps, including the foss AnySoftKeyboard, solve this by letting the user tweak the length of the vibration.

Interesting! I'd like to avoid something like that if possible, but we'll see

I have a Pixel 4a, and I can't feel it at all.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'll take a look.

I have a Pixel 7, and my personal opinion is that since the changes it's slightly too subtle. :) It's a small nitpick, not a big complaint.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oh okay! I was testing on a 7a so it’s probably similar to what I tested. I bumped it up a bit in the latest release.

I just checked in 1.11.0, and it does feel a lot better. Thanks!

No haptics on OnePlus 6T. I have though in Infinity app.

Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE running on Android 13 QPR3. It was working great till the previous version.

Thanks! Try the latest version and let me know if that helps at all. I bumped it up slightly. Might not be who knows!

It feels like the haptic feedback has been disabled completely. Will logcat data be of any help? Haptic feedback works fine with other apps and system.

I'm going to test more devices and try to find a good middle ground, hold tight :)

I don't actually have the haptics on, as I don't actually use them generally, but just tried it out again and they are almost inperceptable. I know they have been toned down, so I increased my phones general touch intensity setting, the swipe haptics are there, but barely noticeable....πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
