Key Features
◆ Glide Typing for Effortless Input
Speed up your typing by simply sliding your finger from letter to letter. Glide typing enables users to input words without lifting a finger, making everyday communication faster and reducing strain during long typing sessions.
◆ Voice Typing for Hands-Free Communication
Dictate messages, emails, or notes anytime, anywhere. With Google's advanced voice recognition technology, Gboard transforms your spoken words into text instantly, offering a convenient hands-free option for busy users or those on the go.
◆ Handwriting Input for Creative Flexibility
Prefer writing over typing? Gboard supports handwriting input in multiple languages, allowing you to draw letters and words on the screen. It's perfect for stylus users or anyone who enjoys a more natural, freeform way of communicating.
◆ Built-in Google Search
Need quick answers while typing? Gboard features integrated Google Search right within the keyboard. Look up restaurants, weather updates, definitions, translations, and more — and easily share results without ever leaving your chat.
◆ Emoji and GIF Search
Find the perfect emoji or GIF instantly. Gboard lets you search for emojis and GIFs by keyword, helping you express yourself more vividly and keeping your conversations fun and engaging.
◆ Multilingual Typing and Auto-Correction
Switch seamlessly between languages without having to manually change settings. Gboard automatically detects the language you're using and provides appropriate suggestions, autocorrect, and predictions, making it ideal for bilingual or multilingual users.
◆ Clipboard and Smart Suggestions
Copy multiple items and manage them conveniently with the built-in clipboard manager. Gboard also offers smart text suggestions, predictive phrases, and context-aware responses, helping you save time and type smarter.
◆ Customization Options
Personalize your keyboard with different themes, backgrounds, key borders, and even custom layouts. Gboard allows you to tailor the typing experience to match your personal style, whether you prefer a minimalist look or something more colorful.
◆ Gesture Controls and Shortcuts
Beyond glide typing, Gboard supports gesture-based controls like deleting words with a swipe or moving the cursor by sliding across the space bar. These intuitive gestures make editing faster and more precise.
◆ Privacy and Security
Gboard is designed with user privacy in mind. Google states that personal data like passwords and conversations are not sent to Google servers, except for search requests, voice input, and features that require online processing.
