If you’re using a phone running the latest version of Google’s Android operating system, there’s a good chance you’re getting an error message

The latest software update for Google’s pixel 6 phones has been updated. The strength of the vibration is now significantly weaker than before.

I’ve had my phone’s sounds set to silent for years. It’s also noticeably softer for incoming calls. Some people have reported missing phone calls as a result.

A poster on Reddit pointed out that people noticed the same thing during the Android 12.1 beta. But it appears to have made its way into the production release without a response or adjustment.

A pixel 6 has noticed the change in their phones. A number of posts on social media sites and comments suggest it’s affecting everyone with one of the devices.
