Make it look and type like Gboard on Pixel. ### 4/5 — Gboard *2026-08-22, version 2.3.19* no pay just you can get what your keyboard wants, but the only problem is when you make the keyboard you can‘t really see ### 2/5 — اليمن *2026-08-21, version 2.3.19* لماذا لايوجد قائمه ارقام بدون رموز مثل الاندرويد ### 4/5 — Mo *2026-08-21, version 2.3.19* We want the Arabic-PC keyboard pls ### 4/5 — Bug *2026-08-21, version 2.3.19* The keyboard froze after u tried to setpitch my keyboard ### 3/5 — What an Odd App *2026-08-21, version 2.3.19* The Gboard is one of those apps I refuse to get rid of because of how good the keyboard is and how bad the Apple keyboard is. But it has not been updated since 2022, that's FOUR years! Google has clearly abandoned this app and it's flaws are showing the older it gets. But yet.... Here I am still using it sooo I guess that says something? ### 3/5 — Gboard *2026-08-20, version 2.3.19* Good ### 2/5 — Over 4yrs since last update?? *2026-08-20, version 2.3.19* Kinda feels like Google gave up on making this keyboard relevant. I have to switch back to the apple keyboard for new emojis and spell check. ### 2/5 — not the real google keyboard *2026-08-19, version 2.3.19* I installed this on my first iphone because the iphone keyboard is horrible. numbers and punctuation on a separate keyboard is useless when you type a lot of numbers. but the Gboard on iphone is the same. I can long press the top row, but every time I go to the punctuation page, the numbers disappear and I have to reset it. It’s as useless as the apple keyboard. ### 3/5 — Does not capital letters when first opening on iOS *2026-08-19, version 2.3.19* Same issue discussed here: Reddit.com/r/gboard/comments/py4z02/gboard_not_capitalizing_when/ ### 3/5 — Auto correct *2026-08-18, version 2.3.19* Good but no auto correct on translate ### 3/5 — Used to be really good *2026-08-17, version 2.3.19* Used to love this keyboard in the swipe function, but now it’s just gone completely stupid and it gets all my swipe boards wrong ### 5/5 — DOWNLOAD THIS APP RIGHT NOW!!! *2026-08-17, version 2.3.19* Such a good app! I made a custom Katseye keyboard and it’s so cool! Im also typing this with my Katseye keyboard and I made a cool shortcut 🎀 𝒦𝒶𝓉𝓈𝑒𝓎𝑒 ⌨️ ### 5/5 — T *2026-08-17, version 2.3.19* Using tha key board & reporting the status on scheduled acclematet. ### 5/5 — Bangla keyboard *2026-08-17, version 2.3.19* Boys ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-08-21, version 2.3.19* Not intuitive, it’s as clunky and dis functional as the original iPhone one. Complete garbage ### 1/5 — Bad and slow *2026-08-20, version 2.3.19* Interface is bad, typing is slow and messes up regularly ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-08-20, version 2.3.19* It’s so hard to change the theme of the keyboard to custom even with the app because I upload the picture in the app and it says see the preview in the app but I’m in the app so dumb and stupid I hate it ### 1/5 — . *2026-08-19, version 2.3.19* YOU ARE NOT LETING ME🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬👆👆👆👆👆👆. ### 1/5 — Georgian keyboard missing *2026-08-17, version 2.3.19* Title pretty self-explanatory. There's no Georgian keyboard... But, for whatever reason there is a Morse code ### 1/5 — BS, keyboard *2026-08-16, version 2.3.19* Gboard requires you to allow them to have access to everything you have typed if you're using iphone and maybe android too and will no longer allow me to send links to you tube videos when I'm making a comment or messaging on messenger. Please fix these things Google. Thank you ### 1/5 — capitalization broken *2026-08-16, version 2.3.19* When using dictation, this keyboard will not capitalize the first letter of the first sentence of a paragraph. The problem is years old and has never been fixed. ### 1/5 — Not available clickbroad *2026-08-16, version 2.3.19* Not available clickbroad ### 1/5 — autoCorrect *2026-08-15, version 2.3.19* The review is AutoCorrect does not work no matter how many times I have activated it it keeps trying to correct my work and it always correct them wrong as example Atlanta I say Atlanta what does it put (my atna ). Why would it correct my Atlanta to that when I have AutoCorrect turned off so the interview is or the review is your AutoCorrect sucks if you’re not going to let it stay off I tell it to stay off and yet it comes up and put Atlanta as my Aetna How screwed up is that look there I put House screwed up is that and it put screwed up that see I messed up it is I plainly say my words and it totally corrects it to something stupid what you need to do is take off the AutoCorrect just as I requested I will correct what I need to correct AutoCorrect does not need to do it ### 1/5 — no voice *2026-08-15, version 2.3.19* No speak to text ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cok ıyı *2026-08-23, version 2.3.19* Cok ıyıtavsıye derımm ### 5/5 — Amazing app! *2026-08-22, version 2.3.19* So interesting I can post gifs and stuff that I can’t usally W app ### 5/5 — Gbord *2026-08-22, version 2.3.19* Muy buena aplicación para personalizar tu teclado del teléfono no te mete anuncios cada rato ### 5/5 — ভালো *2026-08-22, version 2.3.19* ভালো ### 5/5 — I’m not mad at it *2026-08-21, version 2.3.19* Great to use ### 5/5 — El 5 star i can now larp isreal🤤 *2026-08-20, version 2.3.19* W ### 5/5 — NCT DREAM RENEWED THEIR CONTRACTS *2026-08-20, version 2.3.19* YIPPEEEEEE ### 5/5 — Amazing keyboard *2026-08-19, version 2.3.19* Nothing else to say ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2026-08-18, version 2.3.19* شكرا جزيلا لكم ### 5/5 — Actualizar *2026-08-18, version 2.3.19* Cro qué deberían actualizarlo , su traducción haser cambio de palabras. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
