Scaling for the X max

So I’ve noticed apps still look great but the keyboard looks huge. I’m using the iMore app and having the same sort of thing. Facebook looks okay but I feel more screen realestate can be used efficiently. I’m starting to think apps that supported the iPhone X support this device?

It’s up to the developers to update their apps for Xs Max resolution which I expect to happen. I can’t stand the blown up keyboard and my eyes look for pixels when they’re scaled.

Just a first world problem of being an early adopter.

The apple keyboard is huge when it comes to predictive text. I always use small fonts and they are huge

They need to shorten the bottom bar under the keyboard I understand why they did it that tall so your thumbs rest naturally on the keyboard but I think it's too tall which makes the keyboard too high for my tastes.

Well the iMore app is trash lets be realistic.

I had to set my view to zoom to have a better content until apps get updated for standard view

Yeah, I've been using Zoomed Effects since my 6 Plus as well. It just looks better on the larger screen in my opinion.
