Help Verizon S5 Vibrate sucks

2000f350

Newbie
How many others out there think the vibrate intensity sucks? I keep my phone in an Otterbox Defender case. When I need to turn off the sound and put it on vibrate for going to meetings, church, etc....I might as well turn it off. The vibration intensity is so low that it is too easy to miss. Is there anything that can be done to make it be more noticeable? My S5 is rooted and I am running Xposed with a few modules, if that is helpful...
 
You can get some help with this app, it is primarily for the Ringer Volume, but "it seems to me" that it help the vibration on my S5.

There is another app that I really enjoy that can over-ride the system settings. It is called MacroDroid. I have created 2 macros with it that I named AWAKE DEFAULTS, and Ringer Max.

On each macro, set the trigger to sense the screen status. ie, Unlocked or Screen OFF.
then for the ACTION you select SET VOLUME and that will let you select a number of items for it to effect.

Also for ACTION you can select VIBRATE which gives 10 options for that. Blip, short buzz, long buzz, rapid, slow, increasing, constant, decreasing, Final Fantasy, Game Over. ( I have not used this yet )
