Android Central Question

I was wondering if there is an option to disable vibration for specfic games/apps and if not where could I suggest it.

For example some games use vibration e.g. a shooting game may cause your phone to vibrate if you are shot. This will still happen if your phone is in silent mode.

Some games thankfully have options to disable this but some dont and it is annoying that the game is basically ignoring the phones silent mode

Hi, if you can register a account here, me or other members be happy to assist you.
 
Most of the games I've played have vibration options next to or near the sound options for the game. If you find one that forces you to use vibration I would really be surprised as that consumes battery and if they want you to play they should also be respectful of your battery concerns. Meanwhile if you find games that don't offer a choice the app page at the Play Store is the best way to reach the developer. Some will reply to review comments but most will have a link at the bottom of the page for feedback.

FYI; vibration is not a permission required item so there would be no individual control from your device. However while you're making suggestions you might want to pop over to Google/Android and suggest that it be a permission required item and then games and apps would have to request permission to buzz you. Just a thought.
