WhatsApp calls don't vibrate - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

I'm fnding that WhatsApp calls don't vibrate when I'm out of the app (eg screen is off, or using another app)
The strange thing if I'm in the app itself, the vibrate works fine for calls, but the moment I'm out of it, I only have the dropdown notification but no vibration.
I'm on version 2.19.308 of WhatsApp.
Is anyone else having this issue as well?

I have a Pixel 2 xl and I'm also having this problem. I've missed several calls because I always have my phone on vibrate at work. It's really annoying.

[Q] 'Incoming Call' Vibration instead of 'Notification' Vibration

Hi all, I have just got my Galaxy Note from South East Asia. I just want to check whether this is a bug or everyone else's gnote is doing the same thing.
Like the title says, When I received a text message, gtalk notifications, whatsapp notifications, gmail notifications or any other notifications, the vibrations that is coming from the phone is the 'Incoming Call' Vibration instead of 'Notification' Vibration. The 'Incoming Call' Vibration is the long buzz and the 'Notification' Vibration is the 2x short buzz. So when I am chatting with multiple people, I get multiple long buzzes, this is driving me crazy, not just that, this is draining my battery as well..
I hope someone can help me, I want and need the vibration, but I just want the 2x short buzz..
p.s. I have played around with the settings with every single apps and the phone settings, but nothing seems to fix it. I have also done a hard reset, problem still there.
Is anyone else having this problem? If this is normal, then is there any apps or anything that can change this? Thank you in advance for any input..
Can anyone just let me know what are their notifications vibrate and the incoming call vibrate? I just want to know whether mine is acting normal or not? could some help me in replying please?
this is common even my phone vibrates long.. try keeping a short tone like single beep or something. This may reduce the duration.
U can actually set different vibration intensities for incoming calls, notification and haptic feedback ...what i did was to reduce notification and haptic feedback to zero so that my phone only vibrates for incoming calls. go to settings/sound/vibration intensity.

the problem here is that the vibrate that I receive for incoming calls & notifications (sms, email, etc) are the same. when setting my phone on vibrate and when I have it on silent, I cant tell the difference whether it is incoming calls or just a sms text when I have the phone in my pocket. this makes me to respond quickly to my phone whenever it vibrates, because i use my phone as business use, since I thought those vibrates are incoming calls.
thanks to you both for the reply.

[Q] How do i shut off text notifications when i'm on a call or listening to music

I'm talking about the annoying double beep (almost like call waiting) the phone makes when i receive a text while im talking to someone. I still want notification sounds when im not on a call so I dont want to silence them enitrely. I dont remember this happening on my One X, is this a new thing?
Wait, your phone had sound when you received a message during a call?
I never had this "issue"

Yep, I get a short double tone (like call wating but shorter and two of them) every time I get a text and Im on a call. Heard in the earpiece or over bluetooth, not from the phones speaker. Never had this before I upgraded to the One from the One X. Cant figure it out without turning off all notifications.

SMS vibration when do not disturb is on

I've had this happen with two SMS apps and I want to stop it from happening.
When do not disturb is on, incoming SMS makes my phone vibrate and continues to vibrate no matter what.
Is there a setting that I'm missing that controls this?
Thank you!

Was the screen on, when you got SMS or screen was off and it vibrated? Basically I remember my Pixel 2 some other phones too have/had a setting under do not disturb do this when screen is off and do that when screen is on...check it. Yesterday my DND was enabled and I did receive a call on Whatsapp which rang. Before the call, my screen was still on that is why, it rang.

This happens in the middle of the night when I know my screen should be off. I'm thoroughly perplexed.

Issues with incoming calls (Viber)

Hey there. Im having problems with incoming calls through Viber. When somebody is calling me sometimes there is no pop up screen, no evidence of viber just ringtone and display is where ever it is. While u using your phone on homescreen or some app or something. This is also happening while screen is locked. Viber ringtone is there when u open the phone there is nothing only viber incoming ringtone.
Is there any fix for this
Mine too. I have yet to find the setting I did which is most likely the cause for this.

Question WhatsApp Audio/Video call silences the device

I have been using Pixel 7 for a few months now and am facing this issue since the day I have got this device. I am not sure what is causing this issue. I tried going through all the settings, developer options, custom rules, notification settings for Whatsapp but couldn't find anything.
THE ISSUE - The device works perfectly fine when I get a normal phone call, which means it rings if the phone is on ring mode when I receive a normal call. Where as for a whatsapp call (Audio/Video), even if the phone is on ring mode, it rings for a second and then immediately switches to silent mode. This means if I get a call over WhatsApp, then after that my phone will remain silent until I manually turn it back to ring mode by clicking on volume button and changing the setting. AI have to do this every single time when I get a WhatsApp call so that I don't miss out my next normal call.
I tried uninstalling the beta version, but it behaves the same way for the regular whatsapp as well. I would appreciate if anyone here could help me with this issue which has become a pain now.
