Whatever the brand of your mobile, surely as soon as you turn on the terminal you have realized that it is not entirely comfortable for you to write your texts. Don’t worry, you don’t need to change the mobile keyboard, you just have to access its preferences to change its size , raising or lowering its height to your liking.

Many Android users think that their keyboard size is small. The default size of these apps, by default, may seem somewhat reduced to our hands but fortunately, it is quite easy to increase the size of the keyboard and make typing with the mobile much easier. In the same way, if you think that it takes up too much space on the screen, we also give you the option to reduce its dimensions.

Increase or reduce the size of the keyboard on your Android

Without really knowing why, the keyboard settings in Android are usually very hidden. Fortunately, for some time now, many layers of customization have had a search engine in the Settings app to quickly find what we want to configure. Just type “keyboard” to access its customization panel.

If not, you can always access the System menu, select Language and Text Input and, once inside, click on the menu called “Virtual keyboard”. this text may be different depending on the manufacturer.

In this space you must select the keyboard you have installed on your mobile. The most normal thing is that it is GBoard , the Google keyboard, or a manufacturer’s own application. Whatever it is, you must select the one you have active on the phone.

Once inside, all you have to do is scroll through the screen until you find the Preferences menu that allows us to change the size of the keyboard on the mobile .

Within this menu you will find a section called Keyboard height that allows you to increase or reduce the space it occupies on the screen. Some layers of customization add a preview to this menu that allows you to see at a glance how I implement, if this is not the case, we recommend that you use multitasking to check the size you want.

Go alternating between the different options (Very high, Much, Medium-high, Normal, Medium-little, Little or Very low) and open a char app, for example or WhatsApp, to see how the keyboard size is being in each one of these options offered by Android settings.

Keep in mind that the preferences menu will be different depending on the app you have installed but the path to alter its dimensions will be identical.
