I've been using Gboard since I got my iPhone 7 Plus. I remember there being somewhere to enable the one handed keyboard. Not able to find it. Was it removed?
Got a tip for us?

You can still glide/swipe on it which is essentially one handed typically, is that what you are referring to? Or are you talking about something that makes the keyboard smaller and off to one side of the screen? If so, I don't think Gboard ever had that, but some other keyboards do, like I think the one from Microsoft.
Can't say I recall coming across that in my use of it or in various discussions of it.
Ah, perhaps the Android version then, as that might potentially have some different/additional options. In iOS out of the more prominent 3rd party keyboards I believe Microsoft's World Flow one has "arc mode" for one handed typing.

You might also want to look at the major third party keyboard topic which also includes various one hand typing keyboards.

[doublepost=1516618050][/doublepost]You have to ensure you have the Google app downloaded. Then go to app... Click on your gmail profile pic in top left.... It will take you to settings.. Select gboard. One handed operation can be switched on there.

Then open text message.... Click on globe icon.....gboard.... Select again and you will see one handed option for the first time. To turn off... Select settings.
