As iPhones have Watch Batman Begins Onlinegotten bigger, typing with one hand has become nearly an impossible task, especially if you've got a Plus-sized iPhone.
Earlier this year, Google and Microsoft both released their own iPhone keyboards to make it easier to type with one hand. Google's Gboard smushed the keyboard to one side and Microsoft's Word Flow curved the keyboard into an arc for better reachability.

Troughton-Smith says the secret, unused one-handed keyboard has been hidden since iOS 8.

As mentioned earlier, Apple hasn't activated the keyboard, which means you won't be able to use it. But there's a workaround to enable the keyboard if you've got a jailbroken iPhone.
