How to remove the vibration when typing on Xiaomi Redmi Note 10: all ways

The vibration of typing on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 can be annoying, especially if you type quickly or use your smartphone frequently in quiet places. Fortunately, it can be turned off in a few steps, but the methods vary depending on the version of the MIUI firmware, the keyboard installed, and even regional settings. In this article, we will examine all the current methods, from standard system options to hidden developer settings.

Many users mistakenly think that vibration is controlled only in the keyboard settings. In fact, on the Redmi Note 10, three different modules can respond to it: the keyboard itself (like the Gboard or MIUI Keyboard), system sounds, and even special features services. If you turn off the vibration in one place, it can remain active in another โ€” so we tested all the combinations.

In the article you will find:

  • ๐Ÿ”ง The standard way through keyboard settings (works in 90% of cases)
  • โš™๏ธ Hidden parameters for MIUI 12/13/14, if the vibration doesn't turn off
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ Separate instructions for Gboard, SwiftKey and other keyboards
  • โš ๏ธ What to do if the vibration returns after resetting

All methods are tested on Redmi Note 10 (mojito/sunny models) with MIUI 12.5-14 firmware. If you have a different version, use the compatibility table at the end of the article.

1.Switch off vibration in the standard MIUI keyboard

Most Xiaomi devices have the default MIUI Keyboard installed, which can be turned off directly, but the path to settings depends on the firmware version. MIUI 14 has made the menu easier, and MIUI 12.5 has to dig deeper.

To take the vibration away:

  1. Open any field to enter text (such as notes or a message).
  2. Touch the gear badge (โš™๏ธ) on the keyboard to open its settings.
  3. Go to the section Settings of the keyboard โ†’ Sound and vibration.
  4. Turn off the Vibration switch when pressed (or Haptic feedback in English).

If you don't have sound and vibration, you have an old version of the keyboard.

  • ๐Ÿ”„ Update. MIUI Keyboard via Play Store or App Store.
  • ๐Ÿ“ฒ Check the settings in the Additional section โ†’ Tactile feedback.
  • ๐Ÿ”ง If the option is not available, move to the next method (system settings).

โ˜‘๏ธ Check before turning off vibration

Done: 0 / 4

Important! On some Redmi Note 10 firmware, once the keyboard has been turned off, it can remain active in system applications (such as Contacts or Phone), because MIUI uses a separate tactile feedback module for system input fields.

System-based vibration shutdown (for all keyboards)

If the vibration didn't go away after the keyboard settings, the problem is MIUI system settings. Xiaomi firmware has a separate tactile feedback regulator that override the settings of individual applications to turn it off:

Step 1. Open Settings โ†’ Sound and vibration.

Step 2. Scroll down to the Vibration section and select Tactile Feedback.

Step 3: Turn off the slider Vibration when touching (or Touch vibration).

MIUI 13/14 may require an additional step:

  • ๐Ÿ” Go to Settings. โ†’ Special facilities โ†’ Physical capabilities.
  • ๐Ÿ”• Find the Vibration item and turn off the Tactile Feedback.
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Restart your phone โ€“ sometimes changes only apply after a reboot.

A critical feature of the Redmi Note 10 is that on some Indian-based firmware devices (mojito/in), the system vibration is tied to the sound profile. If you have No Sound or Vibration on, the tactile feedback can be automatically activated, the solution is to switch to Sound mode or use Do Not Disturb with Vibration off.

3. Disabling vibration in Gboard and other keyboards

If you use Gboard (a keyboard from Google) or third-party solutions like SwiftKey, the vibration settings are hidden in their own menus.

Step 1. Open any text field and tap the icon โš™๏ธ keyboard.

Step 2. Select Settings โ†’ Basic settings.

Step 3. Turn off Vibration when you press the keys and Sound when you press the keys.

For SwiftKey:

  1. Press the badge. โš™๏ธ โ†’ Sound and vibration.
  2. Turn off the keyboard vibration.
  3. In the section Tactile feedback set the value is absent.

If the vibration is still there, check:

  • ๐Ÿ”„ Update the keyboard to the latest version (in the Play Store).
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ Reinstall the application โ€“ sometimes the settings are confused.
  • ๐Ÿ”ง Turn off vibration at the system level (see section 2).
Why does the vibration return after the update?
After updating MIUI or keyboard through the Play Store settings can be reset to standard. To avoid this, before updating, back up the keyboard settings (if you have such an option) or write down the current settings.

4 Problems and Solutions: Vibration does not turn off

If youโ€™ve tried all the ways, but the vibration of typing on the Redmi Note 10 is still active, the problem may be one of the following:

Problem.Reason.Decision
Vibration returns after rebootingResetting system settingsTurn off battery optimization for keyboard in Settings โ†’ Applications โ†’ Battery management
Vibration only in some applicationsThe app uses its own keyboard.Turn off vibration in the settings of a particular application (for example, in Telegram: Settings โ†’ Chat โ†’ Vibration)
No "Vibration" item in the settingsAn outdated version of MIUI or keyboardUpdate the firmware through Settings โ†’ About the phone โ†’ System update
Vibration only works in landscape mode.Firmware bugReset the keyboard settings to standard or reinstall it

One of the most common bugs on the Redmi Note 10 is that the vibration continues to work in Game Turbo, which is because MIUI blocks system vibration settings during game sessions to fix:

  1. Open Settings โ†’ Special Opportunities โ†’ Game Mode.
  2. Turn off tactile feedback in games.
  3. Add the keyboard to the Game Turbo exception list.

If the vibration is only interfering with one app (like WhatsApp), try clearing its cache: Settings โ†’ Apps โ†’ WhatsApp โ†’ Storage โ†’ Clear the cache. Sometimes this resets incorrect input settings.

5. Advanced settings: developer parameters

If standard methods don't work, you can use the developer's settings, which is suitable for advanced users, because incorrect changes can affect the stability of the system.

To turn off vibration through the developer menu:

  1. Activate Developer Mode: Go to Settings โ†’ About Phone and click on MIUI Version 7 times.
