I'm not sure if Gboard is using Gemini for autocorrect or what, but recently it's been incredibly frustrating because it will change entire *correct* words when I'm typing. For example, I typed the sentence "I had to move my motorcycle with a flat tire" and it changed it to "I had to move my motor with a flat tire." It also LOVES changing "absolutely" to "also." This happens CONSTANTLY and it's annoying because I know the words I want to use! I'm using the correct words!

The update where you changed it so you have to rotate your phone to send a picture is very inconvenient. The original layout was completely fine. It's also difficult to navigate my photos now. I can't access my albums anymore without having to click into 5 different things (not an exaggeration). It's not the end of the world, but it does make the app less user-friendly to a degree that I'll probably switch back to my phone's default messaging app.

UPDATE: Since my phone's recent update, I can no longer voice type. The microphone does not work. Previous review ..I'm lovin' this keyboard! I can text super fast now and it's really accurate. You can long press for the numbers on the numerical face of the keyboard but you can't long press for quotes comma's, etc., so that's why I'm deducting one star. You have to switch back and forth to get those. Seems like it would be easy enough for them to add that option. But I do love the app!
