Only foreground pages / apps can trigger vibrations via the vibrator API. So there is no need to expose in the UI which app is responsible for a vibration. Background apps will have to go through a separate notifications API in order to frob the vibrator. On Mon, Apr 16, 2012 at 3:55 PM, Lucas Adamski <[email protected]> wrote: > Last call for comments!
