Keyclick for Mac

Quick overview

Keyclick adds audible feedback to your typing so you can become more confident at touch-typing (typing without looking at the keyboard). It appears as a preference pane on macOS and gives you gentle click sounds for several input actions, helping reinforce typing rhythm and accuracy.

Installing and adjusting settings

Once installed, Keyclick is accessible from System Preferences (or Settings) where you can turn it on and adjust its behavior. The sound level is fully adjustable — we suggest keeping the volume very low so the clicks remain helpful without becoming distracting.

Sounds included

• Scrolling actions are accompanied by subtle audio cues.
• Mouse clicks receive the same brief sound treatment as keys.
• Keystrokes produce short click noises to reinforce each press.

Keyboard controls and mute shortcut

Keyclick supports keyboard shortcuts to raise or lower the sound level on the fly. If you need silence immediately, press Control‑Option‑Command‑T (Control‑Alt‑Command‑T) to mute all feedback at once.

Tailoring behavior per app

You can prevent Keyclick from producing sounds for specific programs (for example, games or audio/video applications) by adding them to an exceptions list so they remain sound-free.

Practical tips

• Start with the lowest volume and increase only if you find the feedback helpful.
• Disable the clicks for apps where sound would be disruptive.
• Use the hotkeys when you need temporary silence instead of opening preferences.

Alternative suggestion

• Auto Clicker — trial version available as a recommended substitute if you want a different utility that focuses on automated clicking rather than typing feedback.
