To silence typing on a Samsung Galaxy using Samsung Keyboard, open Settings > Sounds and vibration > System sound, then switch off Samsung Keyboard. This silences keypress sounds without muting the phone’s other alerts.

Turn off Samsung Keyboard sound in Settings

  1. Open Settings.

  2. Tap Sounds and vibration.

  3. Open the system sound controls. On Android 13 or later, tap System sound. On Android 12 or earlier, tap System sound and vibration control.

  4. Switch off Samsung Keyboard.

Samsung lists these version-specific menu names in its keyboard sound instructions. The system sound screen also controls other interaction sounds, so change only the Samsung Keyboard switch if you want to keep other device sounds. Samsung explains that the system sound settings include keyboard and other interaction sounds in its Galaxy sounds and vibration guide.

Keep vibration while silencing keypresses

Sound and vibration are separate feedback controls. Turning off the sound toggle silences typing while allowing keyboard vibration to remain on. If you also want to stop the tactile response, change the vibration or touch-feedback setting separately; do not assume switching off sound disables vibration.
