How to turn on keyboard vibration in silent mode

By default, your iPhone will make a click sound when you type using the native Apple keyboard. This sound, however, will only be audible when your device is in ring mode. When set to silent mode, you won’t hear the click sound, even if it’s enabled inside iOS settings. To get some kind of feedback when typing in silent mode, you can enable keyboard vibration so that you know when a key was registered and when it didn’t. 

  1. To enable keyboard vibration on silent mode, open the Settings app on the iPhone.
  2. Inside Settings, select Sounds & Haptics.
  3. On the next screen, tap on Keyboard feedback.
  4. In the Keyboard Feedback screen, turn on the Haptic toggle on this screen.

Your iPhone will now vibrate every time you press a key on the native keyboard in Silent mode as well as in Ring mode. 

That’s all you need to know about making your iPhone vibrate in silent mode.
