We have yet to see an announcement on Google’s official blog, but this video isn’t holding back. It’s titled “Gboard; now available for Android,” after all, and it links to Google Keyboard in the Play store that has already been flipped to “Gboard – the Google Keyboard.”
As a recap, Gboard is still the Google Keyboard, but it now gives you access to Google Search from your keyboard. So as you have conversations about places, restaurants, sports teams, travel plans, etc., you can look all of that up within your conversation and then share info from Search. Instead of having to exit your conversation and look up items separately in Search, the experience is now combined. Oh, you can share GIFs too. It’s pretty awesome.
What’s New
Meet Gboard: Search Google and share, right from your keyboard • Emoji search
GIF search, available in supporting apps
Multilingual typing:Automatically switch between your enabled languages while typing
Streaming autocorrect: Autocorrect last two words based on context
Predictive search:Search suggestions based on what you type
Default number row (turn on in Keyboard Settings)
36 new languages
Again, the Play store paged just flipped, so it should be rolling out and available if it isn’t already. My phone received an update as v6.0.69.
