        Yes @advocatux haptic feedback has been in UT for many years. If it's not working, there's a regression somewhere.

          @dobey did it exist when "opening and navigating apps"?

          I know that it works with the usual things (OSK, Numpad, calls, etc) but I don't know if it should work while "navigating apps".

            Yes, any normal buttons/mousearea/etc in the UI would have the quick vibrate.

              I noticed that the first button/action/etc... you press actually triggers the haptic but then, somehow, all the other times you tap the haptic doesn't work...

                @advocatux Yes. It was in Settings > Sounds > Other Vibrations. However this was unfortunately already turned on, so that wasn't the problem. If I turn 'Other Vibrations' off, I basically get the same result - keyboard still vibrates but nothing else.

                  @mymike Yes, that's exactly it! I didn't really notice that before but after some experimenting I realized that it is firing on the first button or action, usually with a slight delay, then no further haptic feedback. Sometimes after a while it does seem to fire again, usually in Settings or something once more, again usually delayed, and then only the once and nothing afterwards. It is quite strange.

                    I've also noticed that when comparing it to the same phone still running 15.04, the vibrations on the keyboard, and presumably elsewhere in the UI, aren't as pronounced or 'loud' in 16.04 as they were in 15.04. Could that be the problem, that they are firing but are just too subtle? Is there a way to turn them up?

                      @pablo180 I don't think so, but maybe...

                      BTW, is there already an issue on Github for this? would you like to open it? otherwise I can do it...

                        @mymike No there isn't an issue opened for it yet. If you could open it that would be great as I don't have a github account.
