Howdy. In Chrome builds 79.x there was a cool feature that allowed you to immediately get translation of a selected word. Open a page in Chrome, tap a word. Voila! If you dragged the panel at the bottom, you could get context search results, plus translation of selected word that showed in Google translate widget along with search results.
This experience has gone since updating to Google Chrome 80.x. Now if you tap a word and drag the Tap to Search panel up, you get only context search results. The panel shows only results for the pages that contain selected word.
However there's no Google Translate widget that automatically showed translation of a selected word before.
Attached are the screenshots of the same page in Polish. White UI demonstrates how it looked in Chrome 79, the dark UI shows how it looks on Chrome 80 when you select the same word on the same page.
Question: is there any way how I could get back experience previously seen in Chrome 79?
I know that in Chrome Canary you can tap a word and get the translation at the bottom of the page. However, it only works for the web pages that are in the language different to the current UI language set in Android.
I am studying Polish language, and my phone is in Polish. However current experience found in Chrome Canary assumes that translation works only for the system UI language.
In Canary, when reading pages in Polish, I don't get translation result for the selected word, because my phone is already in Polish.
In stable Chrome 80.x, when reading pages in Polish, I don't get translation widget like it was in Chrome 79.
Any clues on getting this marvellous tap to translate feature back in current Chrome?
Found solution myself. For those wanting to have Google to translate words for you, when tapping a word on the page, here's the recipe. Even if the target language is the same as the default UI language configured on the phone, this solution will work for you.
Consider your phone's UI is set to Polski (Polish) and you want Google to translate words in articles written in Polish language into English. Because Polish is not your mother tongue.
The procedure to force Chrome translate from Polish into English having UI set to Polish consists of several major steps:
Step 1. Setting phone's system UI language to the target translation language. That's the language into what you want Google to translate your web articles. This language will show on the right side of Google translation widget showing when you tap a word on a web page.
Step 2. Specifying Chrome translation settings. Within Language settings in Google Chrome we have to configure Chrome to suggest translations for all the chosen languages. When a you read a page in one of these languages, you will be able to translate words you tap into English.
Step 3. Switch phone's system UI language back to the preferred language (that's the language that you want Google to use for system UI *and* the news.
Here are the details.
Step 1. Setting phone's system UI language to the target translation language. In this example we want English be our target language.
1. Swipe down, and then swipe again to unhide Android system settings cogwheel.
2. Tap the cogwheel. System settings screen opens.
3. In the search field atop the screen type 'language' (without quotes) in the current phone's system UI language, and then tap Języku i metody wprowadzania (Languages & input) since we're in Polish).
4. On the Języku i metody wprowadzania (Languages & input) screen tap Języki (Languages).
5. On the Języki (Languages) screen tap Dodaj język (Add language), and then on the next screen add English (United States).
6. When back on the Języki (Languages) screen tap on the English (United States) and then move English to the top of the languages list.
7. Phone's system UI switches to English.
Tip: You can add more languages here to make them immediately available in the list of target languages within Chrome language settings.
Step 2. Configure Chrome language settings to suggest translation in the translation
1. Open Google Chrome, and then select Settings in the browser settings. List of browser settings opens.
2. Tap Languages. List of search languages opens.
3. Tap the three dots next to Polish, and then tap Suggest translation. Repeat this for every language which you want Chrome to translate into English.
The key here: since we have English as our default UI language, we can specify that we want Chrome to translate from Polish. When we switch system UI language back to Polski (Polish), Chrome remembers this setting and allows us to translate from Polish even though system settings are in Polish. This is very helpful for learning languages as you always have Google Translate at hand.
4. In Chrome, open some article in Polish language, and then tap a word. Context page shows up at the bottom.
5. Slide the pane all the way up until Google Translate widget shows.
Voilà, we have Google automatically detecting source language as Polish and suggesting English as a default translation target. Now time to fix that for Polish UI.
Step 3. Switch phone's system UI language back to the preferred language (Polish in our case).
1. Swipe down, and then swipe again to unhide Android system settings cogwheel.
2. Tap the cogwheel. System settings screen opens.
3. In the search field atop the screen type 'language' (without quotes) in the current phone's system UI language, and then tap Languages & input since we're in English and want to back to Polski.
4. On the Languages & input screen tap Languages.
5. [optional] On the Languages screen tap Add language, and then on the next screen add Polish (Poland).
6. When back on the Languages screen tap on the Polish (Polish) and then move Polish to the top of the languages list.
7. Phone's system UI switches to Polish.
Done. Now your system language is in Polish, and Chrome remembers settings configured for English. You can open some article in Polish in Chrome, tap a word, and get translation into English in the Google Translate widget. To reveal the widget, slide the context pane up from the bottom of the page so the way until the widget shows up in the pane. Context pane pops up at the bottom of the page when you tap a word on this page.

What about Brazilian Portuguese?
I saw this thread earlier and said I gotta check it out. Well I did and it's great. I already use go launcher and SMS so I figured this would be good as well. Was always looking for a good t9 keyboard. HTC keyboard ain't horrible but this one seems to be a lot better with predictions.
Thank you very much and all your work is appreciated.

what is multi-touch point?
if that means its a multi-touch keyboard, its not? i tried pressing a letter at and then another while still keeping the first letter pressed, and it only detects the first one.
PLEASE add a Neon theme
Please add multi-touch support.
Wow, this keyboard has improved a LOT recently. Japanese support is something I really want in a keyboard, as well as good English support, so I don't have to switch constantly. This one fits the bill. Are there more themes other than the 5 or so included in the settings menu, or is that it?
I particularly like that you can set the haptic feedback as short as you want. With many keyboards, the buzz is just too strong so I turn it off. I set it to the absolute minimum on this app, and it's just a mere suggestion of a vibrate, that you hardly even notice consciously, but still provides some tactile response to hitting a key. Nice.
loving go keyboard !!!
also .. i love all GO APPS ... i only dont use go score heheh
but please , could there be an option to " show landscape as default " ? even if phone has auto rotation disabled ? ( like web browser option ).
also a quick keyboard key to switch from landscape to portrait and vice versa.
THANKS !!
How can I use the spell check features? I have been making spelling mistakes on purpose and the suggestions are nowhere near the intended word, i.e I type "kat" and go keyboard corrects to "later" instead of cat or offering suggestions.

I think many people must be excited by the presence of emojis stickers (the cars and bicycles, the clinking beers and that bizarre, smiling pile of poo...) when they first started using IM applications, because I am one of them. So below you will find step by step instructions along with screenshots on how to get iphone emoji Keyboard with KK Emoji Keyboard.
Fisrt, you should know if your devices support Emoji. The fastest and easiest way for us to know if our Android devices can type and read emoji is go to http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emoji on our devices' browser and scroll down to find “In the Unicode standard”. Expand it and go to the emoji tables. If you can see most of the characters there, you're so lucky. Your android devices comes with an emoji font and you donot have to do anything. Otherwise, you might need download and install some few third-party applications like whatsapp or facebook or google talk to use emojis.
Now, let's go to download and install KK Emoji Keyboard and enjoy the emoticons.KK Emoji Keyboard is the best colorful Emoji,Emoticons and Smiley Keyboard with Gesture Typing input you have seen! I promise!

Hi your app is super but can you add Turkish keys and how can i download your keyboard, can i find on samsung apps or tpk? It is really better than normal keyboard.
and would you please add Farsi/Persian?
Download arrow but already installed?
This is actually a minor issue, but I'm curious why it's happening. When I look at my list of installed Gear apps in the Galaxy Apps store, I can see everything that's installed has a "play" button to the right - all except TBKeyboard, which has a download arrow even though it is installed and working great.
If I remember correctly, this started with v1.1.6 because it didn't even alert me there was an update to v1.1.7, I just happened to click through and notice. But even after the update, the download arrow is still there. I can select "Install" and reinstall the app, but the arrow still shows. I've even wiped my watch to see if it solves it, but nope.
I'm using an S3 Classic T-Mobile with the latest (not 3.0) update, if that matters. Any ideas, tbuaron?
nice app i like it better than the stock keyboard
How about Polish?
Please can you add French keyboard ?
May be swipe feature will be sooo good
German language would be very helpful.
German language is already included.
