How would it even know? What if I hit the g key harder than the a key? What if I move my phone around multiple times, texting while browsing? Wouldn't a key logger be easier?

https://github.com/ggerganov/kbd-audio idk but feel free to go play with some tools that do the thing and see what happens.
