How to remove the vibration when typing on Xiaomi smartphones: all ways

Vibrating the keyboard on Xiaomi can be annoying โ€” especially if you type a lot in instant messengers, social networks or work chats. Constant tactile response is not only distracting, but also drains the battery (albeit slightly), and on some models (Redmi Note 12 Pro+, Xiaomi 13 Ultra) the vibration is triggered with a delay, which prevents fast dialing. Fortunately, you can turn it off in 1-2 minutes โ€” and we will tell you how to do this on all versions of MIUI (including MIUI 14 and HyperOS).

In this article you will find:

  • ๐Ÿ”ง Standard ways to turn off vibration through settings MIUI Gboard
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ Instructions for different models (POCO, Redmi, Mi) and firmware versions
  • โš™๏ธ Additional tactile response settings (vibration force, key sounds)
  • โš ๏ธ Possible problems and how to avoid them (for example, if the off button is inactive)

Whether you're using a standard Xiaomi keyboard or Google's Gboard, we've covered all the options, and if the vibration comes back after the reboot, there's a solution at the end of the article for that.

1. disable vibration in the standard Xiaomi keyboard (MIUI Keyboard)

Most Xiaomi users use the MIUI Keyboard (formerly known as the Mi Keyboard) to turn off the vibration in the system settings, so no additional applications are required.

Follow the step-by-step instructions:

  1. Open any application that has a field to enter text (such as Messages or Notes).
  2. Tap the input field to make the keyboard appear.
  3. Press the gear icon (โš™๏ธ) In the top panel of the keyboard - this will cause the settings menu.
  4. Select the keyboard settings (or Keyboard settings in English firmware).
  5. Go to the Sound and Vibration section.
  6. Turn off the switch next to Vibration on keypress.

If you have a MIUI 14 or newer (such as HyperOS), the path may be slightly different.

Click on any text field|Open the keyboard settings (โš™๏ธ)|Go to Sound and Vibration"|Disable "Vibration upon pressing"|Check for no vibration when printing-->

Note: On some models (POCO F5, Redmi K60) in the keyboard settings can be a separate item Haptic feedback (Haptic feedback) โ€“ it also needs to be turned off.

2. How to remove vibration in Gboard (Google keyboard)

If you use Gboard, the algorithm will be different: this keyboard is set by default on some Xiaomi models (for example, in regions with Google Mobile Services) or installed by users manually.

Instructions for Gboard:

  1. Open any application with an input field and call the keyboard.
  2. Click on the three-point icon (โ‹ฎ) top panel of the Gboard.
  3. Select Settings (Settings).
  4. Go to Text Correction or Preferences, depending on the version.
  5. Find the Keypress Vibration section and move the slider to the โ€œOffโ€ position.

In the new Gboard (2026) versions, the path could look like this:

If you still feel vibration after turning off, check if the system tactile response is enabled in the Android settings (more on this in the next section).

3. disable system vibration in MIUI (if the keyboard ignores settings)

Sometimes the keyboard's vibration doesn't turn off through its own settings, and that's because of a conflict with the system's tactile response, which is controlled at the MIUI level, and to completely remove the vibration, you have to turn it off in the phone's settings.

Do the following:

  1. Open Settings on your Xiaomi.
  2. Go to the Sound and Vibration section.
  3. Choose the Vibration (Vibration).
  4. Turn off the option of Touch Vibration or Haptic feedback.

On MIUI 14 and HyperOS, the path may be slightly different:

Settings โ†’ Additional settings โ†’ Special features โ†’ Vibration
What if the โ€œtouch vibrationโ€ option is inactive?
If the switch is gray and you can't move it, then your device has power saving or performance on. Go to Settings โ†’ Battery and Performance โ†’ Performance Mode and select Balanced. Then the vibration option becomes active.

Warning! Disabling system vibration will block tactile response in all applications, including:

  • ๐Ÿ”˜ buttons in the menu (for example, in Settings)
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ Vibration when blocking/unlocking the screen
  • ๐ŸŽฎ Tactical response in games (if implemented through a API Android)

If you only need vibration in games or notifications, but not on the keyboard, use separate control (described in the next section).

4. Separate vibration control: keyboard only or systemically

On some MIUI firmware (especially POCO and Redmi with global version), you can adjust the vibration selectively, for example, leave it for notifications, but remove it on the keyboard.

  1. Open Settings โ†’ Sound and vibration โ†’ Vibration.
  2. Turn on the vibration when touching (if it was turned off earlier).
  3. Return to the keyboard settings (MIUI Keyboard or Gboard) and turn off the vibration only there.

If this option does not work, try using the "Do Not Disturb" mode with exceptions:

Settings โ†’ Sound and vibration โ†’ Do not disturb โ†’ Set up โ†’ Vibration โ†’ Disable

But keep in mind that this will leave the vibrations for all notifications, not just the keyboard.

If you switch between vibration modes frequently, add Vibration shortcut to the Quick Settings panel. To do this, swipe down from the top of the screen, click on the pencil icon (โœ๏ธ) Drag the vibration into the active area.

The Vibration Tuner app (available on Google Play) allows you to fine-tune the vibration, including turning off for individual apps:

  1. Install Vibration Tuner.
  2. Give permission to access special features (will pop up automatically).
  3. In the main menu, select Per-app vibration.
  4. Find your keyboard (MIUI Keyboard or Gboard) and turn off the vibration.

Method 2: Disconnect via ADB (for advanced)

If you have access to the ADB (Android Debug Bridge), you can turn off the keyboard vibration by command:

adb shell settings put system haptic_feedback_enabled 0

To return the vibration, replace 0 with 1.

FAQ: Frequent questions about keyboard vibration on Xiaomi

โ“ The vibration is off, but when you type, it still vibrates?
You probably have system vibration enabled when you touch (section 3 of this article), turn it off in the MIUI settings, and check if you have a third-party keyboard (like SwiftKey) installed that ignores system settings.
โ“ Can you turn off vibrations only for certain apps (for example, only on WhatsApp)?
Yes, but not through standard settings. Use the Vibration Tuner app (Section 6) or MacroDroid to create automation rules, for example, you can set the vibration off when you open WhatsApp.
โ“ After updating MIUI The keyboard vibration turned on itself?
Updates often reset user settings. Re-turn off vibration in keyboard settings (section 1 or 2) and add the keyboard app to battery optimization exceptions so that settings don't reset.
โ“ Is there a way to turn off keyboard vibration without accessing settings (e.g., on a restricted work phone)?
If you're on a kiosk or parental control, standard methods won't work: ๐Ÿ”„ Install an alternative keyboard (such as Fleksy) where the vibration is turned off by default. ๐Ÿ”ง Use it. ADB (if debugging is permitted).
โ“ Does turning off keyboard vibration affect the phoneโ€™s autonomy?
Yes, but not much. The vibromotor consumes minimal energy, so the increase in operating time will be no more than 5-10 minutes a day, much more battery is eaten by the backlight and background processes.
