• Gboard is getting a subtly redesigned emoji picker interface.


• With this refresh, Google reverts the recent design change in beta that introduced broader buttons.


• This time, the update is rolling out in the stable channel, which means it will be available to a broader range of users.

Google is constantly testing new UI tweaks or behavioral changes in its apps. Some of these changes don’t stick, especially when they are limited to beta versions of the apps. Precisely this is happening with Gboard and the minor design change that Google implemented a few months ago.

With a recent Gboard update, Google is rolling back the interface it previously introduced to the keyboard’s emoji picker. It is reverting the broader buttons for emojis, GIFs, and stickers that were added to Gboard beta in May, and replacing them with more compact ones. This appears to be a server-side switch instead of being tied to a version update.
