Googlers, you guys dropped the percent sign in Gboard
How such basic omission is not caught is beyond me. I'm on Android 8.0 using default Gboard
Did you find it?
Let's evaluate the possibilities: * Thousands of tech employees and hundreds of millions of users failed to notice that a common symbol is missing from the keyboard they use a hundred times a day. * You're being stupid. What do you think? Hint: apply Occam's razor.
When you woke up this morning and stumbled into the bathroom to take a piss, you glanced at the mirror. When you noticed your perfect hair, and flawless skin you smiled. Yes. Today, will be a very good day. Today I will post on the internet. Today I will show the world who I am. I will post my brilliance on Blind so that my children will know of my greatness and smile. I will post so that when I am gone from this earth, others might know of my greatness. I will invoke Great Philosophers so that I may show the world how my intellect soars above that of the plebeians who dwell with me. I shall use my tiny, fleeting, priceless gift of human life. I shall use it to troll, and they shall know me.
Omg epic pwnage xD xD
Yolo
Is it true that google wants to be “scientific” and encourages to use fractions instead of percent?
Yes, they want you to write things in fractions with a denominator of 100. There's even a special key for it so you don't have to type it out each time.
I found it now thank you . But why hide it so deep?
Strange indeed. They say “Don’t be evil”. Evil is an absolute. Percentage is relative. Yet hidden so deep.
You can long press . (dot) key to access common symbols including %
Hit the ?123 toggle, then hit the =\< toggle. It's right there.
It's quite a bad design choice to put such a common symbol two pages away from users.
Yep. Just pointing out its existence.
