It's actually even simpler than that. At really high levels of chess, it doesn't take a lot of information to get a real advantage (even looking at an engine once or twice during a game would increase your win rate significantly if you're already that good). In some cases, even just knowing "there's a really good move here" is enough.

You might be like "That's crazy" but chess puzzles are all built around that notion. Even as a more novice player, if you're told "Make what you think is the best move in the situation" you're less likely to find the best line compared to if I told you "Actually there is checkmate in 3 to find here" (especially when it comes to considering how much time you're going to spend looking for it under time control).

I'm not even claiming the guy is cheating or that this is how they are doing it, but I think it's underestimated how much a little information can help.

"there's a really good move here" is probably it. Only vibrate in this situation and then vibrate the code for the piece to be moved.
