How to remove the vibrating from the keyboard on Xiaomi: the complete guide

Keyboard vibration on Xiaomi smartphones is one of those features that either make it quietly easier to interact with the device or annoying to the point of frenzy. If you’re in the second category of users, this article will help you figure out how to completely disable tactile returns when typing — whether it’s standard MIUI Keyboard, Google’s Gboard or third-party apps.

The problem is that the manufacturer hid the vibration settings in different menus depending on the firmware version and the phone model, and after the MIUI updates, the paths to the parameters often change, and some options disappear altogether. We tested all the current methods on devices from 2023 to 2026 (including Xiaomi 14, Redmi Note 13 Pro+ and POCO F6) and collected working solutions from basic to hidden.

Attention: If the keyboard vibration is accompanied by input delays or spontaneous presses, the problem may lie deeper in a touchscreen malfunction or application conflict.

4. Editing system files (for advanced)

If ADB didn't help, or if you want to pinpoint the vibration for the keyboard only, you can edit the system configuration files, which requires root rights or the use of the Magisk module.
