I thought this was very silly when I first saw it, but figured I’d give it a shot. As someone that usually hates the sound of keyboard keys, I have to say this app is very fun and it does bring me joy. Would be fun to have mouse clicks for trackpad users as well.

This is an incredibly fun app that I want to keep using! I often work with earphones on, and being able to continuously listen to pleasant sounds really boosts my productivity. In particular, there's an option called "carriage return," which plays a satisfying cash register sound every time you hit the return key—super handy (or should I say, satisfying?) for Japanese speakers like me who press it all the time. Some might think, "Do I really need this?" but I highly recommend it because it genuinely improves the quality of your work.

Has worked flawlessly on M5 running 26.3 (25D125). A joy to use, wonderful range of sounds to choose from. This is an app I’ve been wishing for since the early days of Hanx Writer on iOS decades ago. Thank you for developing it! 🙏

Love this app. I love the sounds that it makes when typing on my keyboard. Should add more sounds in an app update. But great app still.

Hey, Paul 👋. Thank you for taking the time to praise JoyTap. I really appreciate it 🙏. Yes, I have a few keyboards in mind that I'd like to add. I'm still researching how to do that 🤔.

The idea is unique, actually pretty simple. But the impact of using this app is huge. Typing feels more alive, and it helps me stay focused and not get sleepy. I work more than 10 hours a day, and typing is the main thing I do. This helps me a lot!

Hey 👋. Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it. 10 hours a day! Are you Superman? I hope you can handle it 🙏!

I’ve been looking for this for years, and I wish Apple built it into the OS. Sadly, this is another app that is too obtrusive or awkward for what it does. 1. ALL the many sounds emulate old mechanical keyboards. I don’t care about “sounds from my youth;” I just want auditory feedback. 2. It has now stuck a small but permanent window into my screen. It says “open settings to close this tip,” but WHAT settings? From Setapp? From this app? (The window does not mention the name of the app, so it took several minutes to figure that out!) Nothing I have tried gets rid of the window. SETAPP Background apps should be UNOBTRUSIVE. This one isn’t.

I love it, I'm completely hooked already. Now I'd love it if there was a way to add sounds to mouse clicks and resize-like movements when you move the cursor. That would be perfect ❤️

Response from Developer

Hey 👋. Thanks for taking the time to compliment my work 🙏. Yes, mouse click sounds are already in my backlog. But I haven't thought about gesture sounds yet. Honestly, right now I don't even know if it's possible. But I'll definitely explore it.

A lot of fun, would love to have some Shortcuts actions available so I can enable/disable sounds programmatically.

Response from Developer

Feb 26, 2026

Hey, Tobin 👋. Thanks for the feedback! Yes, I've added the shortcut idea to my backlog!

Its nice , sound is good but can be improved, nice touch for getting that crunchy sound with no external keyboard.

Hey 👋. I agree with you. There's no limit to perfection. However, achieving even higher quality is not easy 😮‍💨.

The app is really fun for me It's really good for my screen recording purpose. It would be great if there any if there's a mouse click sound also.

On macOS Sonoma, no sound comes out except the return key. Gave all the permissions, rebooted the mac, quit and relaunched the app, signed out and back in Setapp, no dice. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Response from Developer

Mar 7, 2026

Hey 👋. Sorry. I'm sorry you had a negative experience with JoyTap 🙏. It actually sounds pretty weird. The sound mechanism is the same for the return key as for all the others. Besides, I see that several hundred users are using Sonoma, and everything seems to work for them. I will try to research and make the system more reliable in future updates.

I’m really enjoying this app - it makes my MacBook much more fun to use! It would be great to have a setting to choose the preferred audio output. Sometimes I use headphones or my bluetooth speakers, but I still want the clicky sounds to play through the MacBook’s speakers. That option would be very useful. Thanks for building such an enjoyable app!

I am soooo happy this app exists. SO satisfying, and I can just wear my headphones if I don’t want others to hear.

Hey, Cienna 👋. Thank you! I understand you, when I was developing this app and testing it endlessly, my wife almost kicked me out of the house 😅.
