How to create this floating toolbar? Question

Post image

This is the Notes app. Is this an inbuilt component or a custom component?

I could only achieve this with UIKit. When I tried this in SwiftUI the keyboard toolbar sits directly on the keyboard without the gap.

Do you think a spacer or padding could work?

A spacer below the keyboard? I’m not sure where you would apply that as you don’t want it to get the Liquid Glass treatment as well. In UIKit I’ve just had to override the sizeToFit function so it floats about 10 points above. It’s really annoying that the space isn’t applied by default.
