Google Keyboard for Android has updated to further convenience the lives of smartphone users and includes a one-handed keyboard mode, the ability to change the keyboard size and some design tweaks.
For those who often find themselves multitasking, the one-handed keyboard feature could prove handy. It also includes an option to tailor the one-handed keyboard to the user's dominant hand.
For smartphone users who find themselves clicking several buttons while attempting to press just one letter, there are now five different options for keyboard height that may resolve this issue. There are other, smaller details added to the new upgrade as well -- including the ability to rapidly move the cursor around, as well as the capacity to delete entire words rather than just single letters alone.
