How to make the WhatsApp keyboard larger - in detail?

To make the WhatsApp keyboard larger, users can follow several detailed steps depending on their device's operating system.

For Android devices:

  1. Open the WhatsApp application.
  2. Navigate to the chat where you want to use the enlarged keyboard.
  3. Tap and hold on the text field until a menu appears at the top of the screen.
  4. Select "Input method" from the menu. This will open the list of keyboards available on your device.
  5. Choose the keyboard you are currently using, which is likely the default Google Keyboard or Samsung Keyboard.
  6. Once in the keyboard settings, look for an option that says "Preferences," "Advanced," or similar.
  7. Within these preferences, find the option to adjust the keyboard size. This might be labeled as "Resize keyboard" or something similar.
  8. Drag the slider or use the plus and minus buttons to increase the keyboard size to your preference.
  9. Save your changes and exit the settings. Your WhatsApp keyboard should now be larger.

For iOS devices:

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
  2. Scroll down and tap on "General."
  3. Next, select "Keyboard."
  4. In the Keyboard settings, you will find an option labeled "One Handed Keyboard."
  5. Toggle this setting on. This feature allows you to move the keyboard to either the left or right side of the screen, effectively making it smaller and easier to type with one hand. However, if you prefer a larger keyboard, you might want to consider using a Bluetooth keyboard for better typing experience.

While these steps are generally effective, it's important to note that the exact options and menus can vary depending on the specific model of your device and the version of the operating system you are running. If the steps above do not work for your device, consulting the manufacturer's documentation or support resources may provide additional guidance tailored to your particular hardware and software configuration.
