It’s been a long time since there was any news for the mobile version of the keyboard gboard. After its redesign in tablets, now comes another redesign, that of its toolbarand its interface change has been very good for the google keyboard.
And it is that he Gboard’s status bar redesign comes with some important new featuressince Google maximized its customizationremoved the restrictions we had for years.
More customization on Gboard
This redesign has begun to reach users of Gboard Betawith which it will reach the whole world via its stable version only in a few weeks.
The first novelty that we find in the renewed toolbar of Gboard is the new icon which allows us to access all the tools of the keyboard. Now in the upper left part of the bar appears a icon of a 2×2 grid which, when pressed, shows or hides the entire shortcuts panel.
The second novelty is that now the status bar displays up to six shortcuts. Before, it only showed four shortcuts next to voice input access. The third novelty is in the tools panel, which now displays each shortcut to each of the tools under a square button design with rounded corners, showing the most condensed accesses. Before, your icons were circular and with a lot more space between them.
In this renewed panel of tools we find the fourth and last novelty, and that is that when click and drag to customize we see that we can delete shortcuts in the toolbar or replace microphone shortcut with another tool.
This gives us complete freedom to put up to six shortcuts on the toolbar in any order we want and only the ones we want. We can leave the toolbar even without any access.
