Even with the heat of the expectations of new hardware devices from the Big G, Google, the brand hasn’t neglected its software as new features are coming to Gboard, Nearby Share, Wear OS and Meet.
New features are coming to Gboard, Nearby Share, Wear OS and Meet: what are they?
Yes, new features are coming to Gboard, Nearby Share, Wear OS and Meet and they are attention-grabbing and better user experience. First up, the Gboard is receiving a “modify” feature that lets users simply add an emoji after typing a message. You can try out the feature via the Gboard beta. In addition, the Gboard will be getting an Emoji Kitchen, that allows users to merge two emojis to create another expression entirely plus new mashups are coming in as well.
Google Meet receives a feature that allows users to play and watch games while on a video call. Furthermore, users can now pin particular participants they choose while on any Google Meet call. Then there’s the Nearby Share getting a feature, a somewhat opt-in option.
This feature will allow users to send files and content to another device without receiving a prompt and even while the device screen is off, this feature is in a way similar to the self-share we reported some months ago. Wear OS is joining the gang of new features as the software will be receiving new Bitmoji watch faces alongside a new Google Keep tile for navigating through your notes.
The good news adding to that of “new features are coming to Gboard, Nearby Share, Wear OS and Meet” is that the brand is introducing two accessibility features that will aid the visually and hearing impaired. They are the Custom sound notifications for hearing sounds and notifying the users, then an audio description feature for films viewed on Google Tv by the visually impaired.
