Hard to type with Gboard and Full Screen Gesture On.

[ni6hant]

Gboard in it's tallest mode is still a lot below on the screen. Because of the bad weight management, I have to keep my two fingers above the half of the phone to be able to type properly and it's making it impossible to type one handed.

If I however turn on the navigation buttons and turn off full screen gestures, I cam type comfortably.

Can you find a solution to this?

Either something that props us just beneath the keyboard while typing, or another keyboard that's as close to Gboard as possible(Maybe a Mod). I don't want to turn off gesture navigation. It saves a lot of time for me.

Also, what about the same experience on Lineage OS or any other Custom Rom if anyone has tried those. I mean do Linegae OS natively has swipe from half screen to go back feature.

Try SwiftKey keyboard... It can go way more taller than gboard plus it is 90% similar to gboard

Use floating keyboard option in Gboard.

Swift key helped. I bumped up the keyboard a bit up. I don't like the placement of the symbols on this keyboard though. Still waiting for Gboard to do something like this.

Nopes, it's pretty bad. Can;t type below the keyboard. Thanks though.
