Hi everyone
Just got the Galaxy Active 2. Love it but I've tried to switch off vibrate for everything as i don't like it. But randomly it keeps vibrating, mostly for whatsapps coming through.

Is this just an issue with whatsapp or is there a way to just have sound and no vibrate for all notifications? I've been into settings and have:

sound mode - sound (or mute)
Vibrate for calls and notifs - off

What am I missing?
Thanks
 
Welcome to Android Central! I moved this from the original Galaxy Watch forum to the Galaxy Watch Active 2 forum for more specific traffic.
 
Update on this - it's only for Whatsapp so it seems. All other notifications seems to be able to mute the vibration. I've read some odd things about the galaxy watches not muting notifs from muted whatsapp groups in the past, and this seems to be related. Somehow whatsapp is bypassing the notification settings for the watch and buzzing my wrist anyway. But muting the groups does mute the notifications. I just shouldn't have to mute groups to get the watch to react the correct way.
