I have an iPhone 5s and I only like to use silent and vibrate. I never use the sound. Is there a way that I can assign the switch on the side of the phone to be either silent or on vibrate? I don't mind using the volume buttons on the side either, like i did when i had android, but i noticed that apple doesn't easily let you use move between vibrate and silent without going into the settings menu. Thanks in advance.

Best Answer
If you set the phone to not vibrate on ring, but vibrate on silent, then you could swap your ringtone for one that makes no sound.
You'd have to repeat that for each notification type below, if you wanted nothing at all to make a sound.
I made my own, but Google has a lot of results if you search for 'silent ringtone'
The side switch will then swap between silent [on] & vibrate [off]
