With the brilliant new Taptic Engine in the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus we decided to make use of it by adding haptic feedback to the keyboard! This is only the first release and we've got big plans for where to go from here but we wanted to start getting some feedback.

Here are some free promo codes for those early enough to the party :)

I just wanted to stress that this app is only for iPhone 7 and 7 plus (if the title and description in the app store isn't enough) as they are currently the only devices that have the Taptic Engine. If you have an older device, it will not work.

Why does it need full access? It seems to work even without it

You get haptic feedback without full access? That shouldn't be possible. The engine is only available to the keyboard if full access is enabled.
