When you are getting the likes of Glide Typing, Voice Typing, Emoji, GIFs, integrated Google Translate, then there’s not much left to ask from a keyboard app. However, there is just a questionable decision from this app that leaves too many questions to be asked. For some reason, its default behavior is that its app icon will be hidden in the app drawer. Well, one reason behind the implementation of this rule could be the fact that as opposed to other apps, you wouldn’t open this app more of then than not. Rather the app would get invoked every time you tap on the text field. While that is completely understandable, but they should have made the default state to have its app icon enabled and then let the user decide whether they want to keep it enabled or not. But while that is not the case, you could still easily change this default state and display the Gboard app icon in the app drawer on your Android device. And in this guide, we will show you how to do just that. So without further ado, let’s get started.
