About

Haptic Studio Lab

Features
Read full description

HapticLab is a haptics research app for creating, comparing, and feeling tactile feedback in UI and games. Choose from impact, notification, selection, and custom templates, then adjust intensity and duration as you play them. In the custom editor, place Tap and Hold events on a timeline and fine-tune strength, sharpness, duration, and curves. In the Lab, assign haptics to real interactions such as buttons, counters, toggles, tabs, sliders, result notifications, scratch cards, tracing, and hold confirmations. In Puchi Link, you can test tracing, linking, and clearing feedback inside a small puzzle game. HapticLab Pro unlocks saving custom haptics, export, import, additional templates, saved-haptic assignments, Pro-only lab samples, and puzzle play. Actual vibration requires a supported iPhone. Haptics cannot be felt in the simulator.
