It might have taken longer than we would have liked (http://www.greenbot.com/article/3149493/android/google-finally-releases-gboard-for-android-bringing-search-to-the-keyboard.html) for the Gboard keyboard to make it to Android, but Google hasn’t rested on its laurels. Since its release in December, Google has steadily added new features and interface tweaks (http://www.greenbot.com/article/3177996/android/gboard-6-1-beta-refines-voice-input-gif-search.html) to Gboard on Android, and the latest update may be the biggest yet.
The most noticeable change is the addition of a new toolbar option. When you tap the arrow to the left of the predictive text row (or the G button if you’ve enabled “Show Search and more” in the Search settings), you’ll see a new button that looks like a capital “I” flanked by two arrows. Tap it and you’ll enter Gboard’s new text selection mode, which turns the keyboard into a series of options related to editing text. There are copy, paste, select, home, and four arrow keys, which work together to reduce the time you need to spend messing with the text selection handles.
