height CSS media feature
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The height CSS media feature can be used to apply styles based on the height of the viewport (or the page box, for paged media).
Syntax
The height feature is specified as a <length> value representing the viewport height. It is a range feature, meaning that you can also use the prefixed min-height and max-height variants to query minimum and maximum values, respectively.
Examples
HTML
html
<div>Watch this element as you resize your viewport's height.</div>
CSS

@media (height: 360px) {

}
/* Minimum height */
@media (min-height: 25rem) {
div {
background: yellow;
}
}
/* Maximum height */
@media (max-height: 40rem) {
div {
border: 2px solid blue;
}
}
