Once you have the third-party keyboard installed, you can open up the “Settings” app, either from the home screen or by swiping down twice from the top of the screen and tapping the gear icon.
Next, go to “Device Options.”
Now, select “Keyboard & Language.”
The first thing that we have to do is toggle on the newly installed keyboard so that it shows up in the list of keyboards to use. Tap “Show/Hide Keyboards” and enable the one that you installed.
Now that the keyboard is enabled, we can switch to it. Select “Current Keyboard.”
Select the newly installed keyboard from the menu. You can also tap “Keyboard Settings” to go straight to the settings for that keyboard app.
From now on, when you’re typing something, you’ll notice a little keyboard icon in the navigation bar. You can tap that to switch keyboards on the fly.
If you chose to use Gboard, don’t forget that it’s possible to type with your voice.
