Custom vibration alerts for each of your contacts

iOS 5 has a fun and useful new hidden feature called “Customized Vibrations” that lets you tap out a rhythm, then apply it to any contact in your address book.

When that person texts or calls you, you’ll feel that vibration rhythm in your pocket.

To enable the feature, first head to Settings, then General, then Accessibility.

Turn on Customized Vibrations, then find a contact and tap “Edit.”

Scroll down and tap “Vibration,” then scroll down and tap “Create New Vibration.”

Once you’re there, just tap out your favorite drumline or song. Press “Stop,” and then “Done.”

That’s it!
