Google finally adds ‘Minis’ selfie stickers to the Gboard app for Android

Last month, **Google** had announced that **Gboard** is soon going to rollout a new feature called the Minis. While **iOS has been enjoying the feature** ever since, the day has finally arrived for Android users as well. The feature is a part of Gboard for Android version 7.5 and higher, which is now available on **Google Play Store** . Minis is basically this new feature on Gboard, which transforms your selfie into multiple stickers. As Google had explained, the uses a combination of machine learning, neural networks, and artist illustrations to make stickers out of your selfie.

To create your Minis, open any app that uses the Gboard, then go to the stickers section from the keyboard and then find the ‘Your minis’ tab there. From here, tap the Create button, which will open your front camera, take selfie, and your process to create the sticker starts here.
