I'm not able to reproduce this. Can you specify exactly which buttons you pressed?

If you had the sleep timer set then the play/pause button will reset the sleep timer and provide haptic feedback if you haven't disabled that.

The setting for the sleep timer feedback is off too. It happens with most
buttons really. Within the audio player (all with sleep timer off):

  • Play / pause
  • Skip forward, skip backward
  • Selecting a different chapter
  • Selecting a new sleep timer or canceling it
  • Selecting a different speed
  • Pressing "Create" for a new bookmark
  • Selecting a created bookmark
  • Seeking to a different time

When on an audiobooks page:

  • Discard progress
  • Download (next to stream)
  • Stream / Play
  • The plus button to add to a new playlist

In library:

  • Selecting a different sort option
  • Changing the view from tile to list and vice versa

There are likely more but you get the idea. If it's some freak thing with
only my phone, I think a good solution would be to have the option to
disable haptic feedback from my phone's settings, but I don't know if
that's possible since it doesn't require permissions.

Can you try going to the google play store and searching for "Android System WebView" then updating it

Then restart device

When you open the app check if the setting for haptic feed is still set to "off". That would verify whether the setting is getting saved properly.

Android System WebView seems to be the current version. When I launch the app and go to my settings, it says "off" but has the issue. However, I just tried selecting "off" again and that turned it off. Exiting the app and relaunching it starts the issue again.

Thanks, I fixed it for next release. The issue had to do with setting it on app launch.
