Google is preparing new improvements for Gboard’s AI-powered voice typing feature, known as Rambler, which could make voice dictation more personalised and accurate. The upcoming changes are expected to help the feature recognise corrected words, personal vocabulary and contact names.

Rambler is currently exclusive to Pixel devices and makes voice typing easier by automatically removing pauses and unnecessary filler words. However, it currently lacks the ability to remember words users frequently correct or recognise slang and expressions from their personal vocabulary. That limitation could soon be addressed.

According to Android Authority, an examination of Gboard beta version 18.6.3.10 has revealed evidence that Google is developing a vocabulary feature that allows Rambler to learn from users over time. One upcoming setting will reportedly let the AI remember corrected words, while another will allow it to access contacts and recognise names more accurately during voice dictation.

Users will also be able to manually add words and view their complete personal vocabulary list through Gboard’s settings. Google is reportedly planning an export feature as well, allowing users to share their saved vocabulary lists with others.

Google has not announced when these improvements will become available. However, development appears to be progressing. Android Authority first spotted signs of Google working to make Rambler smarter back in August, and the latest beta version now reveals several features designed to improve personalisation and recognition accuracy.

With these additions, Gboard’s Rambler could become more effective at understanding individual speaking habits and recognising words that standard voice typing systems might otherwise get wrong.
