How to share phone contacts with Gboard | Customization

Gboard has a feature that integrates the phone's calendar into its interface. In this way, users can search for numbers to use the share offered by the virtual keyboard. The function, available only in the iPhone version (iOS), is ideal for use in e-mail and messenger managers that do not have contact sharing like Facebook Messenger.

Next, here's how to use Gboard to share iPhone contacts in apps without accessing your calendar.
