I'm trying to completely remove the vibration that occurs on a long press of an element in a mobile browser.
Specifically, I have an image that I'm adding my own long-press functionality to, but the subtle short-vibrate that happens by default is interfering and I need to disable it.
I've successfully stopped the usual context menu from appearing by overriding it as follows:
window.oncontextmenu = function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
return false;
};
I've also added CSS to stop highlights and text selection etc - but I haven't been able to figure out what's causing the default vibrate after a few hundred ms.
Is there another lifecycle event that's popped on a long-press in a mobile browser, in or around oncontextmenu?

First, swipe down once from the top of the screen and tap the gear icon to open the Settings. Now go to the “Sounds and Vibration” section. Scroll down to “System Sound/Vibration Control.” The bottom section of toggles is for vibration.
Disable the text selection when its clicked on.
document.querySelector("#your_target").addEventListener("touchstart", (e) =>
{
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
this.style.userSelect = "none";
});
document.querySelector("#your_target").addEventListener("touchend", (e) =>
{
e.preventDefault();
e.stopPropagation();
this.style.userSelect = "default";
});
