.
We can see that this option is here, "Touch sounds. Play sounds when making screen selection." This is going to make noises when we press down on the screen. When we make a choice on the screen, it's going to make a noise. This can take a bit of battery. We don't necessarily need it. It can be quite irritating to other people, but we may like it. It may be useful for us.
