One of the many novelties that iOS 16 brings us is that of being able to receive a haptic response of our iPhone when we type. A very interesting feature which, on the other hand, has its impact on the battery, as Apple warns us.
An impact that will always depend on the use
Apple warns us about this in a new support document where it simply states that “enabling keyboard vibration may affect iPhone battery life.” The truth is that vibrating the Taptic The engine with each keystroke has a cumulative effect, but here you have to take into account the hours of use.
Like other features of our iPhone, keyboard vibration has a greater or lesser impact on battery life depending on the amount of typing. If, due to our use of the iPhone, we suspect that this vibration could represent a significant energy expenditure, we could try disabling it and check if we notice any changes.
Let’s remember that we can enable or disable keyboard haptic feedback from the app Settings. We just have to enter sound and vibrationsPress on keyboard response and enable or disable Vibration. From here, moreover, we can also activate or deactivate the sound made by the keys.
As we have already said on more than one occasion, about battery problems, in general, it usually comes out much cheaper to use the iPhone quietly and consider a replacement battery life after a few years we start turning off features that impact how we enjoy the phone.
