Rambler voice typing is now running on Pixel 8 Pro — and any Android phone — via a modded keyboard called PixelBoard. No Pixel 11 required.

Rambler — the Pixel 11’s smart voice-typing feature — is now installable on any Android phone. But it’s unofficial, unsupported, and comes with caveats.

A modified Gboard app named PixelBoard lets owners of older Android phones use the Pixel 11 exclusive Rambler dictation tool, stripping spoken filler words without requiring system root access.

Rambler, the Pixel 11’s AI-powered voice-to-text feature that edits speech on the fly, is now available on non-Pixel Android devices via a sideloadable Gboard mod called PixelBoard.

Google Translate is testing Smart assist, a voice-input cleanup feature modeled on Gboard’s Rambler — but it’s not live yet, and no launch date or pricing is confirmed.
