Gboard is adding support for Android 11’s new emojis

Among the many additions in Android 11 is support for the new emojis included in Unicode 13, announced earlier this year. New emojis are great, but it can take a while for everyone to get them on a system level. Thankfully, keyboard apps can add support at any time, and that’s exactly what Gboard is doing.

Android 11 brings 62 new emoji (117 including variations) and these are now included in the latest Gboard beta. Some of the notable additions include Bubble Tea, a black cat, a polar bear, Mrs. Clause, and a boomerang. Gboard only has initial support for these emoji as you can’t search for them yet, but they are present.

One thing to keep in mind is some of the new emoji won’t work unless you’re on Android 11 beta. The new smiles, in particular, will not appear correctly if they are not supported by the OS. There’s only so much Gboard (and other keyboard apps) can do without support at the system level.

Regardless, if you want to get on board with the new emojis already, download Gboard version 9.6.2.319852869. You can join the beta in the Play Store or download the latest APK from here.
