As a graphic designer I was always in pain seeing that non-centered spacebar, so I'm very relieved by that change haha

Man, I also feel like all that space at the bottom is wasted right now.
I wish we could use the ipad style keyboard, with the swipe down for special characters or at least the option to have the number row.
I mean it is slightly occupied by the home button
Either option would make me so happy!! I loved when i could do the swipe down on the iPad. Gboard is not the same as my wonderful motorola keyboard!
I would like to have a period there always. I don’t know why they keep insisting in changing they keyboard layout in different apps. It doesn’t make it easier it makes it confusing and messes with muscle memory
Its only like that sometimes
Jesus Christ. Reason number 374 why I don’t do updates until I’m forced to
Is the layout of the spacebar really that big of an issue to you? That sounds absurd.
this has been going on since the 5 came out. updates are safety remember lol
I didn’t have issues. Mostly updates are 90% slightly rearranging the UI and slowing down performance for 1-2 alright new features. Not worth it for me
And move the 🤬🤬🤬🤬 return/enter key from that spot. Terrible design.
People still use the stock keyboard?
Don't get the comments sayings it's stock keyboard. Its like that with all 3rd party keyboards? I see the same space on gboard and swiftkey
For me, it’s managed to turn typing on the keyboard something I actually have to focus on instead of just being able to do. Like yesterday in the grocery store, I was trying to text my wife to clarify something on the list, and I had to stand there retyping the same sentence over and over because it kept getting screwed up.
Likewise, the swipe to text feature went from super useful to moderately annoying because it randomly decides to start capitalizing certain words for no reason.
