turn on reachability.
go to settings, accessibility, touch, then turn on reachability. on an iphone with face id, swipe down on the bottom edge to lower the top half of the screen. it is useful for controls that sit far above the keyboard.

the best position is the one that matches the hand you have free in that moment.
