Why didn't someone tell me this sooner?! Quick vibrate mode.

I was taking a screenshot and accidentally hit power and vol up. Lo and behold, I found this super "less well-publicised feature". Its always been tedious pressing a volume button, then choose system sounds, then adjust slider.
How can you tell this is my first pixel. Lol

LOL i didn't know about that either I always did it manually. I knew about power + vol down which takes screenshots but didn't know about the vibrate. Haha thanks for sharing.

Just tried it on my 4A. That's a pretty cool find! Thanks for sharing!

On my Pixel5 at least screenshots are easily done by pushing up slightly from the bottom of the screen.

Under Settings>Sound &Vibration>Shortcut to prevent ringing You can shut the two button shortcut on or off if you'd like.

It's just as quick to touch the volume rocker then touch the bell above the slider to activate vibrate

The options to Mute or Vibrate is in settings. Not exactly a secret.
See below.

Well it seems it is a secret hence the thread

Ah..an easy to find "secret" for all to see.

It's not a secret menu , but if you haven't gone through your settings and get familiar with what it offers then you wouldn't know it's there.

Maybe more accurately described as a "less well-publicized feature."

What are you talking about? That's exactly what I said.

Umm No

Nope. You edited your post only after your read B. Diddy's post. You originally called it a Super Secret feature.

A bit of an odd turn of phrase -- "super 'less well-publicized feature'"

(I'm assuming you're being facetious. Your original post was quoted in posts 3, 5, and 7 in this thread as well.)

I'm sorry to all those I offended in this thread. I thought I'd made it obvious enough by adding quotes when I edited the original post and brought attention to it myself to play along with the joke. Yes I did in fact edit the original post to play along with the moderators joke. It won't happen again.
