Can I control the intensity of the Haptic feedback for keypresses?
Unfortunately no, you can not adjust the haptic feedback intensity for the iOS keyboard.
Will this feature impact the iPhone’s battery life?
Yes, haptic feedback generally consumes a small additional amount of battery every time it is activated. If you’re someone who types a lot on their iPhone, then you could see a significant hit on your daily battery life.
As this feature is fairly new, we recommend you try using your phone on a full charge with haptics for your keyboard enabled to gauge the impact on your battery life. You’ll be able to find detailed information in Settings > Battery at the end of your day.
