My phone vibrates during playback if moved or jostled

Bug report
1

App version: 3.11.3

Android version: 16

Device model: Samsung S24 Ultra

Expected behaviour: No vibration

Current behaviour: Vibration. It’s not a constant vibration. Just a short buzz similar to the haptic feedback from typing on the on-screen keyboard. But it happens repeatedly. Every step causes a vibration. It happens with both the screen on and screen off. I have the widget on my home screen but just as regularly open the app fully. It doesn’t happen with my music player or YouTube. Only when listening to a podcast using this app.

First occurred: Several months ago. Off and on since but now frequently.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Play a podcast
  2. Shake phone in a manner to simulate the device being jostled in a pocket while you walk.

Environment: Bluetooth headphones. Restarting the phone used to fix it. I’ve only recently narrowed down the cause to being this app.

Crash info: None

Do you use the sleep timer? (Open the full player and tap on the :zzz: icon.) If so, is vibration made active there?

Also, are you using any task automation apps on your phone?
