\"Google_Hangouts_Google_IO_Announcement\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The long-anticipated Google Hangouts application was announced this afternoon at Google I\/O 2013 and is now available in the Google Play Store for download.<\/p>\n

The app allows for one-to-one chat, group chat, picture\/video sharing, emojis, as well as video calling. It’s multi-platform integrated, meaning you can use it on your computer, your Android, or your iOS device— everything will remain perfectly synced. Conversation threads will remain on the Hangouts application until you delete them, so you can always look back and see a timeline of old photos and videos you shared with others through the app.<\/p>\n

One pretty big disappointment is the lack of SMS support in the application. However, some have said otherwise. Google knows that apps like “Hangouts” are the future of smartphone communication, so they may just be paving the way for the abandonment of SMS-use. We’ll just have to wait and see how users react to this new technology! Check out a photo gallery and the link to the Google Play Store after the break!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\"Google_Hangouts_1\"<\/a>\n\"Google_Hangouts_2\"<\/a>\n\"Google_Hangouts_3\"<\/a>\n\"Google_Hangouts_4\"<\/a>\n\"Google_Hangouts_5\"<\/a>\n\"Google_Hangouts_6\"<\/a>\n\n
