How to Shut Off Keyboard Clicks on the iPhone SE

Any new iPhone owner, or any previous iPhone owner that has just picked up an iPhone SE, will find that there are certain settings that they don’t like. Apple’s new iPhone owner guide can provide some direction for the settings that you might want to change, but I have found that one I always adjust involves the clicking sounds from the keyboard.

The sound that we are going to be disabling in the guide below is the typing sound that you hear when you are sending a text message or email, and the phone is not muted. This audio feedback is meant to aid in typing, but many people find it to be annoying or distracting. Luckily you can disable that sound by following the steps below.
