So I actually think I misunderstood that chip for this chip. https://www.ti.com/product/DRV2605

Which has a library of different haptic effects

There is a vibration motor which is turned on/off by toggling GPIO pin. You can set it or use PWM (analogWrite) to use it as you wish. Not sure what you are after. No other 'haptic hardware/driver' is there AFAIK.

Not really after anything. Just saw this chip from TI(2605) that does some fancy haptic effects and just wondering if they were at all useful for a watch.

I've only had one example with this kind of thing on my Samsung s3. I had this meditation app that would have this cool ramp up vibration. The kind of ramp that would be a pain to make in software. But i dont know other cases where I know there was some fancy vibration on my watch.

There's a library at https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/blob/master/modules/buzz.js (and associated menu item at https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/blob/master/modules/buzz_menu.js) which allows you to choose from a set of different buzz patterns.

I can understand maybe you want something fancy when driving an iPhone style haptic vibrator that's more like a voice coil than a motor, but when driving a motor, I think you can do whatever you want to do just by pulsing the GPIO pin in the right way, which can be done in software like above?

There's also this module: https://www.espruino.com/DRV2605
