A new Privacy menu is also present in the settings of the app. The update with the new features and redesign is part of version 12.6.06.491625702, according to Android Police.

The keyboard app is available for both Android and iOS devices. It is one of the most popular keyboard apps on both platforms. Gboard offers a range of features including built-in Google search, GIF search, and a range of customization options.
