Gboard, Google’s Android keyboard software, has added a new function that allows users to create emoticons based on words or phrases typed in a document.
Google is testing this button in the beta program of its most recent update, version 11.5.06.427194903, as Android Police has confirmed.
Users who want to try this option can find the tool’s symbol, which depicts a magic wand, in the top right corner of the Gboard keyboard.
Users will be able to enter emojis that are theoretically related to what the text signifies once they have written a given word.
These emojis can be inserted in two ways. Gboard produces them and places them at the conclusion of the sentence if the button is pressed at the end of the sentence.
Gboard, on the other hand, will insert the emojis you choose between the words of the text if you press the magic wand twice.
This functionality will be delivered in stages, according to Android Police, so it’s possible that it will reach the majority of users in the coming days.
