I have a Droid Turbo.

Every event causes the phone to vibrate and play the select sound file.

I just want the sound file to play.  I DO NOT want it to vibrate.  Is there a way to shut off vibrate?  I assume if I shut off push notifications, my phone will do nothing but the event will be in the log.

Any suggestions?

In Android you can set system wide "ring tone mode" to be either "Normal" "vibrate" or "silent". For normal the tag name will be spoken. For vibrate, no audio will play but phone will vibrate. For silent, it will not vibrate. 

So please try to find the "ring tone mode" in system wide setting screen, how this option is called may be different depending on your Android version and branding.

I have searched the settings in the phone.  Vibrate is disabled for phone as well as text.  The only time the phone vibrates is when a push notification comes in for a sensor tag.

Android version is listed as 5.1

The icon reads "WirelessTag" and it shows up twice.  When I click on either of those links, the Play Store opens and I get the option to uninstall or open the app. 

I cannot tell if there are two different versions.

I'm having the same issue... I see the current changelog for the new android app includes:

- Support for temporary pause & disarm from notification tray like described at http://store.wirelesstag.net/blogs/news
- Vibrate on notification can be turned off

But I cannot find any option / setting to turn off vibrate on notification.  Where might I find that?

Jeff
