The key feature for Google’s iPhone keyboard is that it integrates Google Search into the keyboard — one example Google provides is that you can search for an address right from the keyboard, so you don’t have to copy and paste from a separate app.
Other banner features include emoji and GIF search, as well as a “flow typing” feature that uses prediction algorithms so the user can type with one hand.
Apple opened up keyboards to third-party developers in 2014, but there’s mixed data on just how many iPhone users use a non-Apple keyboard.
You can grab the keyboard in the App Store here. More details in this Google video:
