Reduce ios keyboard height

问题:

How can I reduce the height of keyboard in iOS? I couldn't find any api that I can use to achieve this objective.

My client noticed that Facebook messenger and builtin iMessage app on iPhone 6 has a keyboard which is a little bit small in height than keyboard in my app. Is it because they are using custom keyboard or there is a way in iPhone 6 to reduce the height?

I am posting screenshots below from both apps so that you can compare them.
