Six months ago, Google introduced a new keyboard for iOS users and now after a long wait, the search giant has rolled out Gboard for Android users as well. Google’s Gboard is similar to a simple keyboard featuring the Google search bar built into the app.
Google provided the information that the new keyboard will be similar to the old one in terms of speed and accuracy and will also provide both the options of glide typing and voice typing. We can also search and share information, GIFs, emojis, and much more directly from the keyboard.
Moreover, for making the Gboard more useful and more advanced, Google has added multilingual typing to it so that users can switch to other languages easily.
Here are the new features that come with Gboard:

Furthermore, it is also able to predict the possible searches matching a user query. Like if you type “Let’s meet if the weather looks good” then it will show you the weather report.
It’s very common to share videos or emojis while chatting with a friend.
