On February 12, 2020, a new feature 'Emoji Kitchen' was introduced that allowed users to mash up different emoji and use them as stickers when messaging. Offline voice recognition was added in March 2019. The functionality is expected to come to the iOS app at a later time. In June 2017, the Android app was updated to support recognition of hand-drawn emoji and the ability to predict whole phrases rather than single words. In April 2017, Google significantly increased the amount of Indian languages supported on Gboard, adding 11 new languages, bringing the total number of supported Indian languages to 22. Another new update in March 2018 added Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Greek, Polish, Romanian, Balochi, Swedish, Catalan, Hungarian, Malay, Russian, Latin American Spanish, and Turkish languages, along with support for voice dictation, enabling users to 'long press the mic button on the space bar and talk'. The keyboard also offers new options for a dark theme or adding a personal image from the camera roll as the keyboard's background. Īn update for the iOS app released in August 2016 added French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish languages, as well as offering 'smart GIF suggestions', where the keyboard will suggest GIFs relevant to text written. Gboard supports a variety of different keyboard layouts including QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, Dvorak and Colemak. This functionality was added to the app when it was branded as Google Keyboard. Gboard supports one-handed mode on Android after its May 2016 update.

Gboard features Floating Keyboard and Google Translate in Gboard itself. As of October 2019, 916 languages are supported. Google states that Gboard will add more languages 'over the coming months'. At its May 2016 launch on iOS, Gboard only supported the English language, while it supported 'more than 100 languages' at the time of its launch on the Android platform. It features Google Search, including web results (removed for Android version of the app) and predictive answers, easy searching and sharing of GIF and emoji content, and a predictive typing engine suggesting the next word depending on context. This is measured by the Google Play Store and includes downloads by users as well as pre-installed instances of the app. In August 2018, Gboard passed 1 billion installs on the Google Play Store, making it one of the most popular Android apps. At the time of its launch on iOS, the keyboard only offered support for the English language, with more languages being gradually added in the following months, whereas on Android, the keyboard supported more than 100 languages at the time of release.
