Smartphone manufacturers have been striving endlessly to create flawless displays, which deliver top-of-the-line media streaming/viewing experience. As it result, mobile screens have grown bigger and more vibrant, while pushing reachability down the pecking order.

Typing, especially, can become taxing on such beefy displays, but thankfully, app developers still have a bit of empathy left for users and have taken measures to assure one-handed usability. In this section, we’ll take a look at four of the most popular keyboard apps and explore their resizing options.

How to resize your Samsung Keyboard

Step 6. Press Done.

How to resize your Swiftkey keyboard

Step 1. Open the Swiftkey app.

Step 2. Under Keyboard, tap on Typing.

How to Resize your Gboard (Google keyboard)

Step 2. Go to Preferences.

Step 3. Under Layout, tap on One-handed mode and choose either Right-handed or Left-handed mode.

Step 4. Tap on Keyboard height, choose from five options — short, mid-short, normal, mid-tall, tall.
