We wanted to give potential customers the ability to fully test the app prior to purchase, but we weren’t sure how best to limit

One of Gboard’s playful features could be on the chopping block (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-05 11:27:37

Ryan McLeod / Android Authority TL;DR Gboard may be removing Bitmoji integration on December 15, 2025. A warning hidden in the latest beta says the Bitmoji tab will disappear after that date. You’ll still be able to use Bitmoji through its website or other supported services. Bitmoji has long been part of Gboard’s sticker lineup, letting you drop personalized avatars into chats without leaving your keyboard. But it looks like that integration may be on its way out in the fairly near future.
