Is the adding the symbol itself supposed to be a new update or he's referring to the fact that It's the first now?

Running Oreo too, nothing like BTC in google keyboard on both Nokia and Samsung. But, according to some, it's only for iOS, and the picture doesn't look the one I'm seeing on my device.

This seems to be true, read this: Google has just added the infamous Bitcoin “B” symbol to its keyboard, but only for iOS users. It’s not clear why it hasn’t been added to Android keyboards. To access it, make sure you’re using the Google keyboard, not just the default Apple one, and hold down the dollar symbol to see a pop up of several of the world’s major currency symbols. The Bitcoin symbol is located on the far left. But will it encourage adoption? As long as it does, it will appear on Android soon. [1] The beautiful thing is that the symbol appears as a real BTCitcoin and not as we used "Baht symbol is ฿." [1] Google keyboard enables Bitcoin symbol on iOS

Tried with the Virtual keyboard and nothing there too. After looking on the image in reddit I think the interface looks like an iPhone interface. I guess it was not released for android yet. edit: Ok here, you were few minutes faster than me however it confirms my statement.

I'm about to update by just looking at the thread and after reading those replies, well it's for iOS ATM. As long as it does, it will appear on Android soon. [1]
Can't wait for that moment.

With android device it might delay for some time. I haven't seen this with my Google keyboard. ios might have got the update, this update will get added to the Android platform later as initial updates most of the time takes place with ios platform. If that's true, bitcoin is proving itself good in the market.

Silly question but how did you check it? did you hold down the "$" button? and made sure google keyboard is at its latest version? You can also try reinstalling the app. If the problem still persist, I guess you can try that? since I'm out of ideas on what is left to try lol. Hope you can enable it somehow, gl!

I've fully updated my Motorola G6 Plus and I don't see it either. I'm running Stock Android, so it should really be fully updated.
I don't know, maybe they just haven't pushed the update yet for my device?
Anyway, it would actually be pretty handy if it got added. I do type 'Bitcoin' quite a lot in conversations.

Those small additions are certainly good for bitcoin adoption.
It would be great to be able to wirte Bitcoin symbol in a keyboard easily. I use a Motorola Android and I cannot see bitcoin symbol in the keyboard as well, as many already mentioned

I am an Android smartphone user, and right on Android there is no visible bitcoin symbol. maybe this bitcoin symbol is only available on iOS devices or special cellphones. despite all that, this has proven that bitcoin is already known by many people. I hope that with this news, it can restore the green market, and hope that it will soon be available in all smartphone devices.

Is this some kind of prank of Google? I don't know any Iphone users (who are my friends) personally who downloads a 3rd party keyboard on their phones let alone it being a Google Product, so why bother adding a BTC sign when your loyal Android users don't receive it on their stock keyboards? This might be some kind of experiment for Google but I don't see why they just limit it for Apple products. Not even all Iphone users receive it on their Gboards as based on the Reddit article users in Europe didn't received it in their app.

IOS user here. I also don't see the btc sign on my phone. I checked everything twice but no luck. I am still missing something probably.
Anyway This update just shows bitcoin isn't going down and will be around for many years. Other tech giants will be following google hopefully.

I hope this news is not fake.I am infinitely happy for the owners of iOS. I have an Android system, so I still can not look at this update.I hope soon this symbol will appear in all keyboards.In general, this news is of course positive. Everything is moving in the right direction.

I haven't seen anything like this on my phone, Maybe my google keyboard is not yet updated, Well I really think Bitcoin is very well known by Google and many people are using the word bitcoin that is why I think Google added it, In this aspect, we can really see that Bitcoin is very popular and many people are getting to know more about it and accepting it, And Google is innovating it to the fullest.

This symbol may not be a big thing for them ( normal users ) but it is a big thing for us ( crypto users ) because this is another evidence that bitcoin is now being recognize by google . soon other big and popular companies will follow this idea . this can surely help the adoption to widen drastically .

Wait, is it me or do they also have the Petro (venezuelan crypto, also known as a scamcoin 1) symbol? The one that looks like a 'P' (just google "petro venezuela" to search for the Petro symbol). Weird, maybe that symbol can be used for something else? That's gotta be it, I mean, why would they have that one on their phones? I don't use iOS, btw. 1. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-04-03/crypto-rating-sites-are-already-calling-venezuela-s-petro-a-scamThose small additions are certainly good for bitcoin adoption. No, they aren't. How exactly is this gonna help bitcoin adoption? This is just a "comestic" thing that doesn't change anything other than instead of typing "bitcoin" you're now gonna type " BTC".

Using an Oreo phone, nothing here. Would be nice if they added it. Not gonna drive up adoption but will definitely make bitcoins legitimate in the public eye.
For now I just have a shortcut for the ฿ symbol for typing bitcoins outside the forum.
