Hi, The icon you are referencing here is the new Messaging Center. We have added this to the keyboard as a means to communicate new features and tips when they are available. We're sorry you want to remove it but we don't currently offer a way to do this. I will however pass on your feedback to our product teams. Regards, Matt
I've had this topic posted when the feature came, more than 25 days ago and noone has replied to my post... I want it also to be make possible to turn it off.
Please allow this, I've been waiting for the option to hide this ever since it was added after Microsoft acquired the app. You can hide/rearrange everything else. Why would we need permanent access to a feature that we can just check out in the settings? I just hope that with the acquisition of SwiftKey by Microsoft, the consideration of suggestions wasn't lost... this used to be my favorite Android keyboard.
What's sad is it's been two years since this question was asked and that button is still sitting there taking up valuable screen real estate where most of us would like an actual button we might use once in awhile instead. It's mind boggling how a button better tucked in settings is FORCED on the users and requests for customization are just ignored. I guess Gboard will win in the long run.
@Lando I don't know... We should send a support ticket? I've sent some already... Also Gboard has a big issue with the Samsung rom and they aren't solving it... So that's why it's hard and Microsoft SwiftKey has better prediction and more language integration with features.
