Gboard beta app is getting new features in latest update. The version 6.5 of the Gboard beta app will now let you add Bitmoji and stickers. 

After updating the app, you will see a new sticker tab in Gboard next to emojis and GIF. You can get Bitmoji and stickers by tapping on them. In order to start using them, you have to install sticker packs from Play Store and download the Bitmoji app. Once you install sticker packs, they will show up on the bottom of the keyboard as an icon. Similar to GIFs, you can search for stickers as they appear in a carousel.

Sticker packs are currently limited and includes Garfield, Despicable Me 3, Power Rangers, Trolls, Disney, Hello Kitty, NBAmoji and more. There a couple of paid sticker packs as well. Google had replaced Google Keyboard with Gboard for Android in December last year. Earlier in March, Gboard for Android added automatic GIF and emoji suggestions, voice typing and more. The Gboard beta Version 6.5 is now available the Play Store.
