Developer Steve Troughton-Smith recently discovered hidden code for a one-handed keyboard in Apple’s iOS by hacking an iOS Simulator. The shocking fact is that this one-handed keyboard has been there since the launch of iOS 8 over two years ago.
Today’s fun hack (been there since at least iOS 8); the iOS keyboard has an unused left/right one-handed mode. Activated by edge-swipe pic.twitter.com/zIk7x7CVmu— Steve T-S (@stroughtonsmith) October 19, 2016
However there is something similar on your iPhone already, with the landscape keyboard offering several shortcuts. But this version happens to push either side of the QWERTY portrait keyboard across in order to reach the shortcut options.
You won’t be able to make use of it unless you go through the same unofficial route as Steve. So if you really wanna make your keyboard experience easier then take your jailbroken device and get swiping.
