Gboard topic in german
I wanted to create a german site of gboard. But it has been deleted, because I didn't complete the site, because I had not enough time.
But i would looking forward to seeing also a german site of Gboard, or more information on the english site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbb-piano (talk • contribs) 20:47, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
Licence
Gboard is not properteiry software. It is licenced under Apache 2.0. I am pretty sure all Google products and software are.--Alex Mitchell of The Goodies (talk) 21:08, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
- That's absolutely not true. Gboard is Google's proprietary keyboard application, it's not part of AOSP. Plus, do you have a source to back up that claim? InfiniteNexus (talk) 21:23, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
- Android is Apache 2.0. That is enough evidence alone since Android is Google software.--Alex Mitchell of The Goodies (talk) 20:50, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Also what the heck is AOSP?--Alex Mitchell of The Goodies (talk) 20:53, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Just looked it up and it says Android Open Source Project. All apps originating on Android are most definitely a part of the AOSP. This also includes Google Chrome, Gmail, Google Docs, and more.--Alex Mitchell of The Goodies (talk) 21:02, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- There is also no way that a free software could be non-free software. It just doesn’t make any sense.--Alex Mitchell of The Goodies (talk) 21:03, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- I'm afraid that's all original research. Gboard is not an open-source product. Here is a list of AOSP's stock apps, none of which are Google-branded. Rule of thumb: if it has the "Google" name in it, it's not open-source. Google usually develops their own apps for Pixel/Nexus devices instead of using the stock versions (Gboard was originally only available for Nexus). And once again, that's really not quite how licencing works. InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:09, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
- P.S. Gmail, Chrome, and Docs did not originate on Android, LOL. And the idea that Android apps are automatically open-source like Android doesn't really make sense. InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:11, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
I am pretty sure all Google products and software are.
– No, that's not how licensing works. InfiniteNexus (talk) 21:25, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
Possible update to the reception part?
Only one source from 2016 is noted. The reference to certain features seems outdated (specifically where it talks about customization). Pardon me for not having any specific changes in mind. -- Python Drink (talk) 23:27, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
