Yupp. There are a few things that are default on samsung apps and some features cannot be sued by other apps. Like different notification sounds for different samsung apps or hepatic feature. So if you download Google app it won't be there by default for it. You may have to look into gbaord itself.

Hello Prathy,
As said above, I think the haptic feedback in gboard is OFF by default.
Open Gboard from app screen then goto "Preferences" and turn ON haptic feedback. (See attachment)
Anyway I never use vibration, because it consumes battery a great deal.
Thank you.Screenshot_20211217-094913_Gboard_77258_1639720153.jpg

No it works. Please check you have set the vibration intensity to a senisible value. Just below the haptic feedback. I think it's set to zero by default.

Please try after resetting your accessibility settings.
(Settings >General management >Reset >Reset Accessibility settings)

Also make sure your software is up-to-date, and all your apps from Playstore and Galaxy store especially the gboard. Clear cache and data of Gboard and restart your device.

Also try after turning ON vibration in system settings.
(Settings > Sounds and vibration > System sound/ vibration control> Turn ON everything in vibration and check wheather it works.)
