it is not the keyboard clicks


the feedback sound during long press supposedly belongs to "System Haptics" below "Keyboard Clicks" & "Lock Sound", I believe for iPhone with 3D touch, does not have that on/off option for "System Haptics"


For long press, it gives two kinds of feedbacks

  1. Vibration Feedback, can turn on/off in Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Vibration (toggle)
  2. Sound Feedback, supposedly can turn on/off in Settings > Sounds & Haptics > System Haptics (but the issue here is, toggle on/off on this still always gives sound feedback during long press)

Ok don’t know if you already figured it out but I was just able to figure it out 5 mins ago soooo ..

  1. go to settings
  2. search “vibration”
  3. Click on it
  4. the second to last option should say “vibration”
  5. turn it off and you’re all set

Hi. so i brought my iPhone 12 to the apple store because of the haptic feedback issue and the notification rang really loud.


The apple store then told me that they uninstalled and reinstalled the iOS. with this, the issue was gone. My iPhone now behaves correctly. The click sound is still there when doing haptic feedback (long press). However the notification now does not ring loud when long pressing something which triggers haptic.


Hope this could help.

Thanks for posting this, at least I know now I'm not alone. I just upgraded from iOS 13.7 to iOS 14.2 and am now getting this loud clicking on my iPhone XS too. As you say, it's coming from the speakers and the only ways I've also found to disable it is to put the phone in Silent Mode or have on my AirPods Pro. Driving me a bit mad, making me less likely to want to force touch or long press anything

same here, as i turn off touch vibration and system haptics usually i long press it wont trigger any feedback including sounds


seems like a bug? or feature that we unable to off in iOS14?


turning off System Haptics inside Setting > Sounds & Haptics does not help at all, but then whats the purpose of having System Haptics on/off?


a check with friend iOS beta 8, having similar behavior, is it nobody reported this bug?


iOS 13 dont have this issue
