Hi. I signed up this forum to answer this question. To add to the replies above, it’s not just for thumb typing but is also the QUICKPATH keyboard. Quickpath is iOS’s equivalent of Swype: you can drag your finger on the keyboard to write a word instead of tapping one letter at a time.
If you don’t know what I’m talking about, look for it on youtube or Apple support pages. Some like it, some hate it.
I didn’t even know about the long press to get to the small (Quickpath kbd). I discovered it one day when I accidentally pinched it into the small size.
