People with large devices have made peace with the fact that they cannot type with one hand. Just when people were getting comfortable with that thought, Google has surprised us again. With the latest update to the Google Keyboard for Android we can use a single hand to type.

Google Keyboard 5.0 enables you to adjust the size of the keyboard so that you can type with one hand and also see what you're responding at.

You can access the single-handed mode through the preference menu and also toggle it on and off by long-pressing the comma key. Once activated, the keyboard will shrink a little toward one side of the display, allowing you to access the far side of the keyboard with your thumb.

You can also change the height of the keyboard. You can hold down on the delete key and then swipe to the left to get rid of multiple words at a time.
