IOS 18 Update - Emoji Keyboard

I don't typically write reviews on new updates as they typically are fine. For once I did want to mention one thing that bothers me and hoping it can be changed. I greatly dislike the new emoji keyboard and how its become bigger. I don't like the large keyboard layout and they kind of hurt my eyes. I'm near sighted and so its not needed for me to have them so big. Is there a way to revert them to the previous version? I don't know if anyone else has the same thoughts on this subject. Maybe a possible option to have the ability to switch the keyboard size to which ever suits the user? Anything would be helpful as I do enjoy using the emojis but now I'm avoiding them. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I totally agree with you. Please do something about it

same problem here. Really dislike the new Emoji keyboard especially the fact that you cant even change it back. The Emojis are too big and the tabs are too small so that I often don't get to the category I want to. Really hope that it gets changed back or at least that one has the opportunity to change the keyboard!
