What is Google Keyboard?

Google Keyboard makes typing fast and easy with gesture and voice. Glide through letters with Gesture Typing to enter words - just lift your finger to finish a word and gesture again, no spacebar required. Compose text on-the-go with Voice Typing. When you can’t find the right words, express yourself with the perfect emoji. Works on all your Android devices.

Key features: • Gesture Typing: Slide your finger from letter to letter. Completes a word before you’ve finished the gesture, especially useful when gesturing longer words. • Voice Typing: Touch the microphone to dictate your text. • Word completion suggestions, automatic corrections, and next-word prediction. • Emoji: Press and hold Enter to add emoji in any app (Android 4.4+) • Learns as you type: No need to manually add words to a personal dictionary. Type a word once and you can gesture type it or find it in suggestions next time. • Syncs your user history across devices and improve suggestions. To turn on keyboard syncing, go to: • Settings > Language & input > Google Keyboard > Accounts & Privacy > Google Keyboard Sync

Gesture typing and word suggestions supported in: English, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German (Germany and Switzerland), Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish.
