Google has begun merging Google Voice with Hangouts. No app updates to look for, just wait to see the notification in Hangouts on your Android device to get in on the fun. Just wait to see the.

Step 1: On your Mac, launch the native stock app and ensure that it loads up properly. Step 2: When the app loads up, select the Messages header from the menu bar, and then select Add Account from the list of options. It doesn’t take a genius to work out what we are going to do here. Step 3: When the new account dialogue appears, make sure you select Google as the service sign-in option of choice. Step 4: When the authentication box appears, make sure to use the necessary Google account credentials to sign in. This will then allow you to add Google Hangouts as a service. That is all that you need to do to be able to use Google Hangouts directly within the stock Messages app on your Mac.

It’s not exactly bringing Google’s ecosystem into Apple’s, but it is definitely a good compromise for those who use a Mac and Messages app for iMessages, but also use Google Hangouts frequently. One thing that Mac owners often overlook is just how powerful and extensive the Messages app is in macOS. It’s definitely one of the most advanced apps on Mac as it supports multiple types of messages. Even the fact that it handles SMS and iMessage is impressive enough in all honesty.

Have a go yourself at integrating Google Hangouts and see if it changes the way that you use your Hangouts service.

Has just received aninterestingupdate. Hangouts 11 takes one major step forward and another peculiar step backward. First, the good: Hangouts 11 is now capable of sending video attachments, finally catching up to a function available on iOS for quite some time now. As for the bad: conversation merging – where SMS and Hangouts messages to the same person are combined in a single thread – has been removed. Google claims merged messages have been removed because it was confusing to users and was a little-used feature. OKbut then again, and I’m sure root would also count as a “little-used” privilege too. But they’re not going anywhere.

Either way, this is the hand we’ve been dealt so we’ll just have to live with separated SMS and Hangouts messages in Hangouts 11. Unfortunately, you can’t play the video message in Hangouts though. You’ll have to choose a third-party app for that.

Likewise, when you record a video it will record in your default camera app. So, for example, on the Galaxy S7 Edge you’ll get a different recording screen than the Nexus 6P or HTC 10.

Again, this is a third-party tie-in, not a native feature to Hangouts. To say this isn’t exactly seamless would be an understatement, but at least you get the camera interface you’re familiar with. One final positive note to end on: if having your Hangouts and SMS separated for the same contact bugs you, simply disable SMS in Hangouts and choose an alternative SMS app like Messenger as your default. This will remove SMS from Hangouts and push them elsewhere (which is what Google wants you to do). It means you need to use a second app, but it’s a neater – and less “confusing” – solution than split message types in Hangouts. Do you still use Hangouts?
