However, complaints in Google's Android forums hasn't tipped Google into supporting Gujarati yet. Being a Gujarati website, of course, we want to see Gujarati added to Android. The languages that are still missing include Gujarati, Punjabi, Nepali, and some others. However, it seems only Hindi Input Method Editor (IME), a keyboard that allows you to type in these languages, is included in Android. This means that Android has a font that can render these languages. Google has included a few of the Indic languages, namely, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali, Hindi, and Telugu starting with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich).
Native Gujarati support in Android is still missing as of Android 4.4 (Kit-Kat). If your device will not be upgraded to Lollipop, please follow the instructions below to add Gujarati support. Currently, Samsung and LG are on board as their line of newest phones do include their own Gujarati font (not Noto Sans Gujarati). It's up to the manufacturer or ROM developer to include the Gujarati font. So if you are using phones from Motorola, Oppo, HTC, etc., or if you are using a custom ROM such as Cyanogenmod, MIUI, etc., the font may not be included. They are not included in AOSP versions of Android. The third image shows the SwiftKey keyboar layout for Gujarati input.Īs mentioned above, the font is only available in Google's Nexus phones, however. Images below show the Noto Sans Gujarati font displayed natively on my website. Until then, SwiftKey Keyboard is currently offering a Gujarati input method.
Google still has to add Gujarati keyboard input though so we can type in Gujarati. The fonts are called Noto Sans Gujarati and Noto Sans Gujarati UI and both come in regular and bold versions, though they are seemingly indistinguishable. UPDATE: Google has finally added Gujarati fonts to Android 5.0 (Lollipop) in the Nexus line of phones.
