    How do you type on your mobile phone?
    Do you hold the phone with one hand and type with a finger of the other hand, or do you hold the phone with both hands and type with your two thumbs?

    Depends on how wrong someone is.

    They're the only 2 options?

    What about one-handed - hold in one hand and use thumb from same hand?

    Also, is it not a case of circumstances?
    • Both hands are free and writing a big message - more likely to use 2 hands.
    • Writing a quick message and/or one hand is not free - more likely to just use the one hand for everything.

    If you have a phone made in the last few years that's not really an option as 6 inches and over screens is now commonplace with some as big as 6.8 inches making one handed texting really difficult

    I thought my Friends thread was the lowest this Forum could go.

    Thank you.
