        Google stores anything you ever typed, so now at least it shows you what you copied in clipboard.

IMO they should introduce them bit by bit and optimize their skin so they can deliver quicker updates and less problematic ones.

              Yeah! Add more crap and make this f***ing app more than 300+ mb.

                  I would like a freaking undo or redo function in Android!

                    Swiftkey already has all of these features...
                    SwiftKey ALL THE WAYYYYYY...!!!!!!!!!

                      Good for gboard. Still doesn't beat SwiftKey.

                          I like Xperia keyboard 🎹, because some special characters different from other when you logged any ID 🆔 and also suitable for one hand.

                                This is exactly, why both stock Android & custom skins both have their pro's & cons.

                                For instance, pure Android is cool and fast with the latest updates, then again good customisation (such as Sony, Samsung Experience etc. & NOT iOS-copying Chinese UIs) probably have tons of useful features that were present eons before they added to stock Android.

                                Case-in-point: The Samsung keyboard even since Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), had a handy and feature-rich clipboard manager.
