Hi wonder if anyone can shed any light on this problem I'm have with my Samsung s20plus. Whenever I watch videos the phone vibrates every 3/4 seconds when I turn the video of the vibrating stops any ideas anyone.

  • Yes stop watching !!!!!! lol
  • Which app are you using to watch the videos? 
    Retired at age 56 after having "light bulb moment" due to reading MSE and its forums. Have been converted to the "budget to zero" concept and use YNAB for all monthly budgeting and long term goals.

    Why didn't I think of that lol
  • Which app are you using to watch the videos? 
    Its the default app that Chrome uses. If i go to you tube and play a video there is no vibration. 
  • OK, just tried it and could not replicate the behaviour. The only thing I came across was to turn off notifications for "playing media" option for Chrome in the settings of your phone (Settings > Notifications > under "Recently sent" tap "More" > in the "Most recent" dropdown tap and select "All" > Find and tap "Chrome" in the list > deselect "Playing media"). Whether this will solve the issue though I'm not sure.
