Why Doesn't Vibration Work?
Below are the most common reasons why vibration may not work with our Free Online Timer — Countdown, Minute, Hour & Custom Timers:
1. Your device does not support vibration in the browser
Not all phones or browsers support vibration via JavaScript. Older devices or restricted operating systems may lack support entirely.
2. Silent mode or “Do Not Disturb” is enabled
If your phone is in silent or focus mode, vibration is often blocked. Turn these off and try again.
3. You must interact with the page first
Most browsers only allow vibration after a user interaction—like clicking a button. Automatic vibration without a click won’t work.
4. Unsupported browser
- ✔️ Chrome (Android)
- ✔️ Firefox (Android)
- 🚫 Safari (iPhone) — does not support vibration on websites
5. You're using a computer
Desktops and laptops don’t have vibration hardware, so it only works on supported phones and tablets.
