Gboard Gets Stylish: Circle and Pill-Shaped Keys Roll Out for Beta Testers
Gboard Introduces Circle and Pill-Shaped Keys for Beta Testers
- Description: Google is testing a new design for Gboard on Android, featuring circle and pill-shaped keys. The letters are now circular, while the space bar and other keys have a pill shape.
- Aesthetic Changes: This update brings a more modern and rounded look to the keyboard. However, some users might find it cramped, especially if they use the 'Long press for symbols' feature.
- Availability: The design is currently available for some Gboard beta testers (version 15.1) but has not yet rolled out widely within the preview program.
- Recent Updates: This change follows other recent updates to Gboard, including simplifying the Dynamic Color theme and adjusting the shortcut button in the suggestion strip.
