Gboard for Android updated with downloadable stickers and Bitmoji support

Google has just announced a new update will be rolled out to Gboard users on Android devices in the next few days. As the title says, the new update introduces downloadable stickers and adds support for Bitmoji.

With the latest update, Gboard users will be able to share stickers and Bitmoji in any application that allows for image pasting, including most messaging apps available for Android devices. Once the newest version of Gboard for Android is installed on your phone, you will be able to download stickers packs or the Bitmoji app via Google Play.

You'll be able to use either of the two by tapping on the emoji or Bitmoji dedicated buttons within the Gboard app. According to Google, some of the sticker packs are the result of the collaboration with important partners. Initially, Gboard for Android users will be able to download sticker packs like Mickey Mouse, NBAmoji, Google Allo selfie stickers, Disney Princesses, Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Star Wars.

Additional sticker packs will be released in the coming months, so to add the new ones, you'll just need to tap the “+” button when in a sticker tab on Gboard or via Google Play.
