why does the keyboard cover the text input area in text messaging?

Have a Nokia 1520, updated to Windows 10. As of yesterday, when I try to write a text, the keyboard covers the text input area unless I turn the phone to landscape mode. Never did this before. Thought it was a glitch so I reset, but still does it. Any ideas?
