Most of us spend a lot of time daily in texting. Android phones have a great feature which allows users to feel a little vibration on keyboard while typing. I personally love this feature.

Go to Settings and head over to Keyboard or input options. You may find a section named “language and input”, depending upon the version of Android you are using.  Tap on “vibration on keypress” or “Haptic feedback.” Here you can enable or disable vibration of keyboards.

What is the Option is Grayed Out

A lot of users are unable to carry out the above step because the haptic feedback options are grayed out. Here is how to get rid of this issue.

First, you should turn off power saving mode. Or tap on it and just uncheck “disable haptic feedback” and leave the rest of the power saving options on. In other words, your power saving mode must be turned off, otherwise haptic feedback option is always grayed out. Or go to settings-> device-> sound > Keyboard and check the box “vibrate when tapped”.
