Title: Turning off keyboard sounds?
Post by: geomannie on March 18, 2018, 04:27:26 am

Hi
I am very happy to have the haptic feedback on the keys but I would prefer that the keys didn't make a noise on pressing them. I can't find a setting to control this under the Android settings. Under the Planet keyboard app I can find the possibility of turning off the keyboard sounds under "Configure" and controlling the keybord volume under "Advanced" but neither seems to work.

Has anyone found a way of muting the keyboard sounds without muting all sounds?

Thanks

It worked for me. The normal settings in the Gemini keyboard app. I also turned off touch feedback in the Android settings, not sure if that also influences things.

Nope, I can't get the keyboard siund off. Anyone else tried/have an issue with this too?

Thanks

Hi, that planet keyboard app can be updated from the play store, but even after updating the settings (sound, feedback settings) didn't work for me.
What DID work was restarting the device after applying those settings in the Gemini app. I guess they only read their own config on restart...

So yes, you can definitely turn the sound off.

Thanks,

Sorted! Updated Gemini keyboard app, changed Android sound settings and rebooted.

Thanks for the heads up.
