If you are using an iPad running iOS 11 or later, you may have noticed that the keyboard appears in the middle of the screen rather than at the bottom. This is because Apple has added a new feature called “Split View” which allows you to use two apps side-by-side.
To move the keyboard back to the bottom of the screen, simply tap and hold on the keyboard icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen and then select “Dock.” If you don’t want to use Split View and would prefer to have the keyboard at the bottom of the screen all the time, you can disable the feature by going to Settings -> General -> Multitasking and turning off the “Allow Multiple Apps” option.

The keyboard appearing in the middle of the screen is likely due to the new “Split View” feature in iOS 11. This feature allows you to use two apps side-by-side and the keyboard will appear in the middle so that it doesn’t obscure either app.
If you would prefer to have the keyboard at the bottom of the screen all the time, you can disable Split View by going to Settings -> General -> Multitasking and turning off the “Allow Multiple Apps” option.
