Google’s Gboard introduces ‘Smart Compose’ for Android

Google introduced a new beta version of Gboard, its virtual keyboard, recently. Users have spotted “Smart Compose” option in Google Messages.

Mashable reported that it was back in the year 2018, when Google introduced the ‘Smart Compose’ feature at Google I/O. The feature uses Machine Learning tools to offer sentence completion suggestions as one types. This feature can be seen in Gmail and Google Docs as well.

As reported by 9to5google, users who have signed up for beta updates to Gboard, with version 9.5.12.317844448, spotted that the Google Messages app now offers sentence completion suggestions. It also allows the user to modify the text even after the user has accepted the suggestion offered by the ‘smart compose’ feature, just like in Gmail and Google Docs.

Having Gboard is necessary for the ‘smart compose’ feature to be work.

The new beta version is available on Google Play Store.
