Disable the bottom gray bar on the screen when typing on the external keyboard

Hi guys,


How do I disable the bottom gray bar that always pops-up when you're typing on an external keyboard. I've added a screenshot below.


It's quite annoying because it covers a portion of the screen, especially if the area you're typing on is at the bottom.


Any tips on how to get rid of this? Thanks in advance!

iPad Pro, iOS 13

Hello,


You can disable the Shortcuts Bar in Settings > General > Keyboard.
