The more you use, the easier it gets. Search and translation are available on the keyboard. You also can use stickers or your own drawings. Take a look at NAVER SmartBoard, a keyboard app that just fits you. 1. It gests smarter as you use it. You can use suggestions from SmartBoard such as words, corrections, or emojis. Custom texts help you enter long sentences each with a single tap while Quick Keys let your favorite shortened phrases stay in a single key. You can not only change Korean syllables to Chinese characters but also type with your voice. 2. Search while you keep texting You don't have to switch to a search app during a conversation. Finding information of restaurants, movies, weather, and shopping has never been easier. Stay where you are and get things done! 3. Real-time translation as you type in. Don't be afraid of texting or emailing with foreigners any more. Just type in Korean and SmartBoard does the rest translating into English, Chinese (Simplified), or Japanese using N2MT technology. Using voice recognition while translating is even useful. 4. A single drawing wins the speech. Sometimes it's a lot better to show a picture than to describe in words. Draw anything you want to send either on a empty canvas or a picture in your gallery! 5. Customize your keyboard Accustomed to a certain Korean layout? SmartBoard supports major Korean layouts such as "2-set Korean", "Danmoum", "Cheonjiin", "Naratgul", and "Vega". If you were frustrated with "Danmoum" before, meet our "Danmoum+" that has an additional SHIFT key. You also can set any images for the keyboard background.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 네이버 스마트보드 at 4.1 against GOM Recorder's 3.3. 네이버 스마트보드 also leads on ratings volume (327 vs 7) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). GOM Recorder's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
네이버 스마트보드 holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 네이버 스마트보드 has 327 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of 네이버 스마트보드's written reviews are positive against 67% of GOM Recorder's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
네이버 스마트보드 ships an update monthly, GOM Recorder every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
