        So sick of the UT keyboard. How can I get rid of the tiny space bar. I can not type on the damn thing without hitting all the keys around the space bar, but the damn space bar. Maybe a spell check that sees words with "b"s and ".com"s in between them were there should be a space. Driving me crazy.

          You can scale up all uTouch (icons, text, and so on), including keyboard, using Ubuntu Touch Tweak Tool from open store, but i don't know any way for only scalling up keyboard.

            I understand your frustration, I really do. I often type .com when I wanted to type a space too. But please try to keep the wording of your posts civil and family friendly. The Ubuntu Code of Conduct applies.

              @jkgjlll That's indeed an issue with the email/IURL layout of the keyboard. That also happens to me though I don't type with that layout frequently so I'm not annoyed as you 😄 If you can suggest a better layout, I can take a look.

                You three might have veeeeeery big fingers because even with my MX4 scale on 18 (basis is 23), i don't have this issue, and i don't have so little fingers lol

                  Tiny? It's the biggest button on the keyboard. Two and a half times wider than the letter buttons in fact. Can you show a screenshot of your keyboard?

                    @cliffcoggin It's not exactly about it being tiny. But just about it being offset more to the left, causing your right thumb to land in the .com button quite often when aiming for the spacebar.
