PixelBoard: An app that brings Gboard’s Rambler voice typing feature to any Android phone without requiring root access.

Gboard’s Rambler voice typing mode and Artificial Intelligence Writing Tools, which are only offered to Pixel users, can be used on any Android device without root access. The modified (mod) Gboard application called PixelBoard can be easily downloaded from GitHub.

In addition to many functional features of Gboard, some are not available to non-Pixel users. These include the notable Rambler voice typing mode, which was recently introduced with the Pixel 11 series. If users want to try it out on their Android phone and are not satisfied with Swiftkey’s AI voice mode, there is a useful option.

In a post on Reddit, developer Akshay Kadam explained that he based the Gboard patch project by Jason Wu to activate the Rambler mode and Writing Tools, and developed an application called PixelBoard. The application offers a modified version of Gboard with voice typing and writing tools enabled.

According to Kadam, the main purpose of PixelBoard was to make the application work with voice typing and writing tools on any Android phone as close to the original Gboard experience as possible. Therefore, the settings of the application are not filled with advanced adjustments or extra options.

According to the test results in the source, in the test conducted by the developer on the vivo X300 FE device, the Rambler voice mode has been tried. All pauses in the speech are converted into cleanly formatted text by removing filler sounds such as “eeee”, and the text can be quickly reviewed, edited, shortened, or expanded with the text tools. PixelBoard can be installed on any Android phone by downloading it from the website and without root access. The application can be installed along with the original Gboard, and the existing Gboard installation can be patched using Morphe Manager and the writing tools can be activated with Rambler.
