macOS setup
Allow Keybit Input Monitoring on macOS
macOS requires this permission before Keybit can react to keyboard presses in other applications.
How to grant access
- Open System Settings.
- Select Privacy & Security.
- Open Input Monitoring.
- Turn on access for Keybit.
- Quit Keybit and open it again if macOS asks you to relaunch.
Why the permission is required
Keybit needs to know when a key is pressed so it can select and play the correct sound. Keybit does not store typed text, build a keystroke history, or send keystrokes to a server.
If Keybit is missing from the list
Open Keybit and try typing once so macOS can register the request. Return to Input Monitoring and check again. If it appears but sounds still do not play, turn access off and on, then reopen Keybit.
You stay in control
You can revoke Input Monitoring at any time from the same macOS settings screen. Apple also documents these controls in its Input Monitoring guide.
