When your iPhone SE vibrates on its own frequently without any display, check your phone's notification settings menu

There will be times when your iPhone SE vibrates on its own all of a sudden without any notification appearing on your phone screen yet. If your iPhone SE is in vibrate mode and several of the applications are set to sound mode for notifications (thus in vibrate when your iPhone SE is in silent mode) and the other forms of notification will be disabled (the display of banner notifications, the display of notifications on the locked screen, etc.), it is likely that your iPhone SE vibrates without displaying any notifications. It is therefore necessary to check your applications one by one to then find the app which received a new notification and which therefore caused your phone to vibrate. You can always go to the settings menu of your iPhone SE and then configure the display of notifications on your phone.

Stop all unexpected vibrations of your iPhone SE through the notification center

Irregular vibrations with your iPhone SE for no reason: update your phone

Your iPhone SE suddenly vibrates when charging

When you put your iPhone SE on charge, you will feel a slight vibration. This small vibration tells you that your iPhone SE is charging. However, your iPhone SE may vibrate several times, consecutively or not. If this is the case, it is possible that the charging cable or the adapter used is no longer in working order and that your iPhone SE charges badly, or only recharges occasionally. So, each time your iPhone SE is charging again (let's say it's charging in phases), you'll feel a small vibration. So replace the charger of your iPhone SE then get a charger approved by the Apple brand.
