1. What is the app? I ask because I experienced it with Youtube app. However, voiceover did speak immediately the reason why the vibration took place.
2. Ensure that this is not a setting inside the app itself. Different apps can set their own ways of alerting the user.
3. If you are using iOS 10, keep in mind that it still has lots of bugs as far as accessibility. I have no idea how the heck they released it when aria-describedby and labeledby were not working in Safari.

Subject: [WebAIM] Vibrating phone on invalid input entry

Folks,
Discovered a error pattern on one of the apps for iPhone where phone would shake on invalid input while nothing is announced by voiceover.

Is this is a correct pattern for invalid input.
