TL;DR
- Gboard currently auyo-hides its bottom nav bar when browsing GIFs or stickers.
- In a new beta, we’ve spotted wok towards bringing this same UI to emoji.
- Google’s also working on new coloring for the emoji picker.
If you’re not peppering your conversations with a healthy dose of emoji, are you really living your best life? Sure, we can get away with dry, old text, but dropping in a few well-chosen emoji doesn’t just add a welcome dose of color to you conversation, but can quickly communicate sometimes complicated subjects. Gboard already integrates a very useful emoji picker, and now Google’s working on giving that UI some extra space.
Today we’re looking at version 16.4.3.827411866-beta-arm64-v8a beta of the Gboard app, and while the changes we’re talking about aren’t yet user-facing, we’re able to bring you an early look at these still in-development tweaks.
