Hey guys, i am switching over from a note 7. Just got my Iphone 7 plus today and am loving it.

My question is about the keyboard sounds. I haven't used an Iphone since the 4s and I remember the keyboard sounds being really loud. With this phone the keyboard sound is definitely not as loud as I remember. Is this an IOS10 thing with the new sounds?

Welcome back! Apple changed the keyboard sounds in iOS 10. I like the new sound. It doesn't seem as obnoxious.

They changed the sounds in IOS 10. Personally I prefer them and think they're more audibly pleasing when typing long messages, I don't find the sound annoying

I too wish we could adjust the volume of the clicks.

It'd be great if the Taptic Engine was involved in typing on the keyboard too.

I prefer having the sound a bit louder. Not sure why Apple decided to lower it so damn much but if there's any type of noise around you you can barely hear yourself typing away.

I like the newer sounds because it's not as loud. However, I think it would be great if the volume for the sounds could be adjusted. There are times when I would want it muted, and other times, when I'm watching tv for example, when a louder volume would be convenient!

Yeah my question was about it being so low. It seems as though my ipod keyboard is a bit louder than it. Is it supposed to be so low sounding?

Thank you. I was just wanting to make sure my phone wasn't defective or something. it seems to only be the keyboard sounds that I personally feel are very low.
