Xiaomi: Turn Keyboard Sounds On or Off

Typing on your Xiaomi phone without any click sound, or getting loud key tones during a call or meeting, usually comes down to the keyboard's own sound setting. This is separate from your ringtone or notification volume, so muting your phone system-wide does not always silence it. A volume slider controls how loud the feedback is once the sound is switched on.

Turn Keyboard Sounds On or Off auf Xiaomi

The keyboard sound on a Xiaomi phone gives acoustic feedback for every letter you type. It sits inside the keyboard app settings, not in the general system sound menu, which is why muting notifications or switching to silent mode does not always remove it.

To change it, go to SettingsAdditional settingsLanguages & inputManage keyboardsSettingsPreferences. There you find the option Sound on keypress.

Tap the toggle to switch the sound on or off. When it is enabled, a volume slider appears underneath, letting you set how loud the click feedback should be independent of your ringtone or media volume.

Turning this off is useful during calls, meetings, or focus sessions where key clicks would be distracting. Turning it on helps when you type without looking at the screen and rely on sound to confirm each keystroke.

If the sound still plays after disabling it here, check whether a third-party keyboard app is installed. Each keyboard app manages its own sound setting separately from the built-in one.

Frequently asked questions

You may have a third-party keyboard app installed instead of the built-in one. Check its own settings for a separate sound option, since Sound on keypress under Manage keyboardsSettingsPreferences only controls the default keyboard.
