Haptyk detects how hard you type on your MacBook and plays the matching mechanical keyboard sound in real time. Type softly, hear a soft click. Slam a key, hear the slam.
HOW IT WORKS
Other apps play the same click, or a random one, no matter how you type.
Haptyk reads your actual typing force for an authentic, immersive mechanical keyboard experience on your MacBook.
