Today, the Google+ event is happening, and Google has promised to give its social network users many new things. As Google's last major update was the announcement of the Hangout features, Google has made some beautiful changes and added more features to Google+.
Google announced many announcements for its cross-platform messaging service, including SMS support, animated GIFs, and one-tap location sharing for its Android app. Google also says this update will be available on the Google Play Store within a few days. They have added some features to the Android app that allow you to share your location instantly with other Hangouts users. For this user, just tap the new pin icon at the bottom right-hand corner of the app. This will automatically post your location in the conversation with the Google map thumbnails.
As Google promised to give sms support to its Android app, they have fulfilled the promise.
The Google+ Android app will now have the features of text messaging, also with its Hangouts users. Users can use both traditional texting and web-based instant messaging services.
Google announced that it is being revamped for video calling across all supported devices. Videos will now play full screen, and Google has promised to automatically fix and enhance webcam lighting on the desktop.
Until now, the location sharing and SMS features on the Hangout apps for iOS have not been clear, but we will provide you with an update.
