Open-source apps are great! I’ll look into that. Do you know if it has emoji support?

Gboard has good emoji support! Plus, you can easily disable it if you find it distracting while writing. Just a tip.
I prefer using ‘Chrooma Keyboard’ because it adapts its color based on the app I’m using. It arranges itself well, too!

That sounds fun! But does it cover the text field too? Just worried about that.
In reflective moments, I’ve learned that testing different apps is crucial. Some keyboards are just not great with specific apps, and it varies between users.
Totally agree, kaylamueller! ‘Fleksy’ has been a wild ride for me. Sometimes it works perfectly, but other times… not so much!

Haha! I feel the same. Did you try adjusting the settings to see if that helps?
There’s this too – have you thought about clearing the cache of the keyboard app? It can sometimes improve performance significantly.
Nice tip, michael83! I’ll definitely try that before switching to a whole new app.

I’ve had this issue too! You can adjust the keyboard settings by going to Settings > System > Languages & input > Virtual keyboard. Some keyboards let you resize or move them out of the way.
Great tip! I also suggest switching to a different keyboard app like Gboard, which has excellent customization options.
Sometimes, just updating your keyboard app can help! Developers are always working on such quirks. Check the Play Store for updates!
This! I had a similar problem and an update fixed the keyboard covering my text input.
If resizing the keyboard doesn’t work, you can also try changing its theme. Sometimes, lighter themes make the keyboard blend better with your interface.
I’ve noticed that too! A clearer theme can really help with visibility while typing.

Has anyone tried using a third-party keyboard like SwiftKey? I heard it offers great features to customize how the keyboard displays.

SwiftKey is amazing! You can configure it to stay above the text field, which is really helpful.
Just so you know, some apps have their own keyboard settings that can override system ones. Always check individual app settings if the keyboard keeps obstructing text fields.
That’s smart! I usually forget about the app-specific settings. I’ll check them next time!
You can also try tapping the ‘↑’ little icon on the keyboard; it often minimizes the keyboard temporarily without closing it.
