Why not just give the option to adjust the volume ourselves? A setting within the keyboard menu.
Got a tip for us?

Keyboard Click Sound Low - iPhone 7

If you give settings to one small feature, then all of the features will expect settings. And that's just not the Apple way.
Yes, I know this, and it's one of my biggest gripes with Apple. There is no need for a million settings, but a few more would be nice. Dark mode anyone?
Anyway, if they don't want to give the user an option to control the keyboard click volume (you'd think that this would be an Accessibility option), then they should probably fix what is currently not 'just working'. I would like my keyboard sounds to be audible... like magic.
I feel like this has been a problem before with previous iOS versions and/or iPhone releases.
Keyboard click volume should be adjustable.....like Android LOL
Apple should give us the ability to adjust how loud we like the keyboard to click. Is this asking too much of the brain surgeons in Cupertino?
I can adjust the volume of the keyboard and the clicking/tapping sounds get louder, maybe not as loud as they were on iOS 9, but more than loud enough for me.
Has anyone tried to raise the volume of the keyboard clicks on the iPhone 7 Plus? I gave my wife my old 6s Plus and her volume on the keyboard clicks in iOS10 is almost twice as loud as mine in the iPhone 7 Plus. I have checked all of the sound settings, and my Ringer volume is at max.
Today, my father-in-law said the same thing about his new iPhone 7 Plus he just setup a few hours ago.

Yup - same here. I thought something was wrong as well but the other 7+ that I tested was the same way.
wow, i thought it was just me, but the lower volume keyboard click and lock sound on the 7+ is very noticeable compared to the 6 on iOS10. It's definitely not because "the sounds are lowered intentionally". They should be the same volume as it is on the 6 since its running the same OS version. It baffles me.
And others are complaining that the calculator button sounds are driving them CRAZY!
No doubt that Apple can not make everyone happy.
I don't know, but when I adjust the volume under sound and haptic, the keyboard sounds are altered. Granted all the way up isn't that loud, but it is louder than all the way down. I scan see how some might find it adjustment not high enough, but there is definitely some adjustment to it.
It's not just the 7+ or the keyboard, the 7 and other apps/system sounds have issues too. It probably has something to do with the way they are routing audio to the stereo speakers (a API or KEXT probably needs to be updated).
A few quick examples that also have low sound:
• Calculator: The key press sound
• Google Maps: The microphone press sound
• Wallet: The fingerprint reject sound

Sure there is. You just need to enable "change with buttons" in sound settings.
Hi,
It was enabled. It had no effect on the low key click volume. I no longer have the 7+ but my 6S+ is the same, its an iOS 9/10 thing...
That doesn't make any difference. Whilst I like the new sounds they've introduced with iOS 10 the fact that the keyboard click sound is so low and there is no way to adjust it is unacceptable. Hopefully they will change this in a future update.
