Hi everyone,

Is there a way to make my phone on vibrate for everything except phone calls, where I want it to ring? I am missing a lot of calls because it is on vibrate and sometimes I don't feel it with thick pants in the winter. I want my phone calls to ring because they're important, but I don't want any of my text or notifications to ring, just vibrate. Any way to do that?

Thanks
 
You can use Do Not Disturb to have all notifications aside from calls be completely silent. But that's a bit different. Can't really think of a good way to have them all vibrate except for calls.
 
Not exactly an elegant solution, but you could, for all except the phone, select "silent" as the alert/notification sound. (The App store has many silent ring tones and alarms.)
