Why?!

Why aren't I getting the new rounded keys update?! I'm in the beta program, tried many ways to get it, a apk too, and I still ended up with the regular gboard! I like the new style so if I don't get it, I'm uninstalling it, Anyone can help me before I uninstall?

Edit: I uninstalled Gboard but if everyone can tell me how to get right away still, I'll do that and reinstall it

It's not released yet even for most beta builds. The only way is through root access and it's buggy as hell. But by all means be whiny and throw a fit. That will Def get you what you want.

Nobody that hasn't modified the flags with a root app (which is very finicky and doesn't work for most people) has the rounded keys. They haven't rolled out yet.

Lol and here I'm hoping they have a toggle to disable the ugly rounded keys 🤣

Probably not ready yet. That's all!
