Keyboard feedback
busted out to find it on my iPad. Go to Settings > Sounds > Keyboard Clicks and toggle it off
That’s what I have in my original post.
Already off.
This sucks
Works for me. Have you tried restarting it?
Yup
Been this way since I got the iPad a year ago
Can you make an appointment to have one of Apple's techs look at it in an Apple Store?
Edit : solved. Was a third party keyboard. Forgot I installed it a year ago. Swiftkey that was what was doing it.
They are an hour away one way. Maybe when I get that way and I remember to bring the iPad with me.
I'd recommend doing so. What you're describing doesn't make any sense, so there must be some aspect of it that isn't getting noticed / communicated that someone looking at it when it happens can notice. When I was in software QA, I reported a bug that a dev couldn't reproduce. He asked to come see it on my machine. He got to the door and saw that I had the application in a mode that he didn't use and didn't even ask me to reproduce it. He understood what was different between his setup and mine and the bug got fixed.
figured it out finally : I have a third party keyboard SwiftKey installed. That was what was doing it. Forgot I had that installed because swype text isn't or at least wasn't available on the ipad on the native keyboard.. been dealing with this for a year. Lol
HA! It's great when some stupid or silly detail like that is revealed. Happy for you that it's resolved.
Ahh. That would make sense.
Also, why do you want to swipe on the iPad? It’s much too big for that imo and big enough to type on like a normal computer keyboard. (The built in keyboard still can’t do it, for that reason I assume.)
My hands shake. Takes to long to type with my finger, and typing with my thumbs is effectively impossible.
Hmm, right. Yeah I can see how swiping would be better/more accurate then.
Keyboard feedback is a little ways down under Sounds & Haptics, or it should be if you have a recent iOS version.
