The update to version 5.0 of Google Keyboard came days ago and brought with it some very interesting news such as one-hand mode, new gestures and much more that you can find from the published entry where we talk about everything new about this huge app quality.
Among all these changes, among which you can find the possibility of changing the height of the keyboard, there is a small feature that offers great functionality and perhaps you were unaware, such as the cursor control and this one that we are going to teach how to use. This is the option to delete a word suggestion very quickly and that denotes the great interaction of use that Google is providing to this keyboard app.
How to delete a word suggestion from Google Keyboard
The gesture is very simple and intuitive, and the moment you settle into it you can get used to its use since it really is very easy to use and very comfortable. Remember that you need version 5.0 of Google Keyboard.
- From among all the words that are suggested from the three options that appear above the keyboard, select one
- You hold a long press on the chosen word and the trash icon appears
- Drag the word to the trash and it will be removed from future suggestions
In this way, you can eliminate those words that you want to disappear from the repertoire of suggestions and that in some cases can be well compromised. That dictionary of words that a keyboard app has can denote certain actions since it can become offensive that when you leave your smartphone to a friend, it discovers certain bad-sounding words.
The keyboard will also suggest the words you commonly use so you can get more out of an app that was updated to 5.0, raising its quality.
