Keyboard sound gets too loud and too low for no reason

I’m getting freaked out. iPhone 13 pro running 17.2.1 here. For no apparent reason the keyboard typing click sound becomes unbearably loud and the response gets laggy. I start to search the web for symptoms of keylogger infection and suddenly all is quiet and there’s no lag anymore. The lag and loud clicks started when I went on to telegram and WhatsApp then stopped when I went looking for answers and searched symptoms of keylogger infection. I went looking for an answer here and found that someone posted about the same exact thing without the reference to a key logger and they got the typical unhelpful Apple response. End of conversation. What’s up?

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

I think I just sorta fixed it, or figured out the issue anyway…


Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Change with Buttons switch to On.


Normally, the keyboard click volume should match what is set for the ringer volume.


But, after playing with the volume buttons randomly, I noticed… as I increased the ringer volume, the keyboard clicks got quieter again, as I usually prefer it. YAY!

BUT, as I reduced the ringer volume back down, the keyboard clicks got loud again. 😑


So I’m guessing it’s a bug or an oopsie in the 17.2.1 update coding that causes the ringer volume to oppose the keyboard clicks volume.


Kinda annoying, but at least it’s working for me for now.
