Can the app make a click when I skip forward or backward?

Often times I glance away (while working out or walking for example) while navigating the audiobook and I have no feedback that I tapped in the right area to skip back or forward. I might have the book paused, or I might have skipped to a silent portion of the book from a silent portion.

Both Smart AudioBook Player (on Android) and the Audible app do it.

Are you talking about navigating the audiobook from bluetooth?

I don't hear this happening on smart audiobook player unless there is a setting I'm missing.

Nothing to do with bluetooth, No headset connected at all. Just listening on the phone itself. I couldn't find a setting (in Smart) to enable or disable it (I looked). I wonder if its part of the overall Android setting "System Sound/vibration control" - > Touch Interactions. Disabling it in Android settings disables it in both Smart and Audible. Turning it back on in settings makes Smart and Audible click.

I don't have that setting, but I have "Touch Sounds" which is enabled and I don't think I've ever heard any touch sounds.

As of now this isn't going to be supported, I think this is something with the device because I see no way to enable this and haven't heard it before.
