Hangouts also allows you to save records of your conversations with each user. In other words, you can start talking to someone while using your computer, continue the conversation on your iPad, and finish it from your Android smartphone. One of the most interesting features included in Hangouts is that you can use the service from any device, picking up a conversation right where you left off.
You can connect with up to ten people at a time, just press a button and voilà: instant video chat. Just like in Google Talk, you can change your text-based conversation for a videoconference at any moment. You don't even have to be logged in to receive a message from another user. Thanks to these new features, Hangout makes it possible to better express yourself with all kinds of visual material, like photographs and emoticons (emoji), of which you'll have hundreds to choose from.Īs you would expect from an instant messaging client, Hangout allows you to see which of your friends are logged in, when they're typing, and when your previous messages have been read.
The application replaces the venerable 'Google Talk', adding some new features to the classic messaging tool.
Hangouts is an official Google application with the objective to facilitate direct and immediate communication between two users.
