In the event that none of the above tips helped you, there is one more option, but more radical. You can try to factory reset your iPhone, of course with a backup made beforehand. If the vibrations do not work even in the factory settings, then the problem is most likely on the hardware side. All iPhones 6 and later have the so-called Taptic Engine, which takes care of all haptics and vibrations. Although it doesn't happen often, the Taptic Engine can become damaged, causing your device to completely lose all vibrations. In this case, the Taptic Engine must be replaced. iPhones 5s and older then have a classic vibration motor, which costs a few tens of crowns.
