Type on your keyboard, or tap the keys.
Want these sounds everywhere you type? A Chrome extension is on the way, so every website can sound like this. Want a different sound? Request one.
Six sounds to pick from
Some people type better with a little sound under their fingers. Others just like making noise. Either way, pick the one that suits your mood and switch any time.
Good for: writing sessions, the feel of a typewriter or mechanical keyboard without buying one, and kids practising their typing.
Pairs well with the rainy Monsoon clock or the pixel screen of Pocket.
Typewriter
The crisp clack of an old typewriter, with a deeper thud on the space bar and a little bell when you press Enter.
Thock
The deep, rounded sound keyboard fans call thock. Get the feel of a good mechanical keyboard on any keyboard.
Rain
Every key is a raindrop, with little ripples on screen. A calm one for long pieces of writing.
Bubbles
Soft, round pops as you type. A playful one that kids love.
Piano
Every key plays a note from a five-note scale, so whatever you type becomes a little tune. Try your name.
8-bit
Short bleeps like an old game console, for typing as if you were in a retro game.
How it works
Pick a sound, then type on your keyboard or tap the keys on screen. Every sound is made live in your browser as you press each key, so there's nothing to download.
Does it save what I type?
No. Nothing you type leaves your device. There's no sign up, and the text disappears when you close the page.
Does it work on phones?
Yes. Tap the white paper to open your phone's keyboard, or tap the keys on screen.
Why does the piano always sound nice?
Every key is tuned to a five-note scale, so whatever you type turns into a little melody. Try typing your name.
Can I use these sounds in other apps?
Not yet. A Chrome extension is coming that brings them to every website you type on.
