@alexxfoxxuk As quick as we can get it out the door!

@bricon5 Is it push or pull? I'm trying to pull it my side!

This clears up the hundred or so keyboards I have installed :-(

@dredurr Including ours? 😨 Just kidding - its a really awesome keyboard.

Love the app! @bricon5 , once I select a gif can it directly paste it in my message instead of selecting the text box and tapping "paste"? Also, I've allowed "full access" to the app. Is there any way to prevent the app from reading/logging my passwords when I type them? Should I have to switch to the default keyboard to prevent that from happening?

@sornakumar We don't log anything you type! Our privacy policy is in our App Store description: "What Gboard sends to Google: • When you do a search, Gboard sends your query to Google’s web servers so Google can process your query and send you search results. • Gboard also sends anonymous statistics to Google to help us diagnose problems when the app crashes and to let us know which features are used most often. What Gboard doesn’t send to Google: • Everything else. Gboard will remember words you type to help you with spelling or to predict searches you might be interested in, but this data is stored only on your device. This data is not accessible by Google or by any apps other than Gboard."

@bricon5 Thanks for pointing that out!

This looks great -- so since you guys went with Gboard, do you think you might convince the Google Calendar team to go with GCal as their app name now, so it doesn't get truncated into Google Cal... ?

I would pay anything to get a keyboard that has the features of this, and the autocorrect brilliantness of Fleksy. I have tried so many amazing keyboards, but I always end up switching to Fleksy because typing in it is insanely fast. I love Gboard's features, but developers need to understand something. Predictive text is slow as hell. An swiping is slower than pecking on the keyboard. Better to have an autocorrect so good, that you don't need to even look down at the screen, a la Fleksy.

@yashendra2797 I disagree, I can fly much faster with swyping than I can pecking. Swype revolutionized how I used my phone, and since that sucks on iPhone Gboard is a game changer for me

Been waiting for this since it was leaked on The Verge a little while ago. So happy it is finally here and works wonderfully! Great work!

This is the only iOS keyboard I've ever installed that didn't crash the first (and every subsequent) time I used it. Customer for life!

@bricon5 any possibility of being able to set a default site selector for GIF searches (for example, site:giphy.com)? I love the keyboard, but I'd really rather not have to trudge through all the trashy tumblr gifs that come up in results...

@thejohnnyhill Please report bad gifs/sites to the feedback link in the Gboard main app! We read everything and it helps us with quality.

Awesome keyboard, initial impressions are great. Very fluid like the native iOS keyboard. Good job guys!
