Is there an option to disable the vibration?

First, Thanks for the wonderful application.

Whenever I slow down or pause, the vibration starts which inevitably leads to unnecessary battery consumption. I searched the app settings but found nothing related to vibration option. I'm not sure if it's the phone or this app function. I'm just stuck here.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

p.s.
I'm a registered user of off-road explorer ver. 2.2.3

Hi,
Vibration has been disabled for Android 8 devices and more. On older devices unfortunately you cannot disable it.
But the app should not vibrate anyway when you slow down or stop, only if the GPS is lost or turned off, so that should not be the problem.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm using it on my smartwatch operating on the lower version of Android OS. Maybe that's why I have no control of the vibration.

If you have any plans for the smartwatch extension, I hope you to take this option into consideration.

Thanks again.

Yes this is planned and would be great, just a matter of available time to work on it.
Nevertheless, smartwatch or not, the application do not make vibrations when you slow down or stop. You should check that you don't have another app ors service doing so...
