Google's Gboard, is one of the most popular keyboard apps on the Google Play Store which apparently keeps on improving after each subsequent update. Now, there's a new update being rolled for Gboard that brings a slew of new features for the popular keyboard app. With the latest update, the version number is bumped to 8.3.6 and with it, the Internet search giant has brought handwriting input for more than 200 languages. Additionally, there are a couple of new features added as well.  

iOS via the App Store, though it hasn't received the same update.

The biggest change with the new update is that Gboard now s more than 200 languages that too through the handwriting input method. And if you are the kind of person who fancies writing over typing, then you should definitely check out Gboard and see if your preferred language is ed or not.

To select your preferred language for handwriting input, simply open Gboard's settings and select Languages. After this, tap on add a keyboard and on the next screen, select your preferred language. The handwriting input method will show up on the next screen for you to select only if your preferred language is ed.

  Along with the handwriting input , Gboard s will now be able to share their language settings with other Gboard s, so that the other person is easily able to set up their app. Although this feature is listed in the changelog, it is currently in beta. At the time of our testing, we were not able to use this feature. Lastly, there is an indicator now that lets you select your preferred emoji gender and skin tone. This only works with some of the ed emojis.
