Maybe if they reintroduced hangouts and let me:
I'd be tempted to use them again. It amazes me that they made an app that encompassed basically every modern form of individual communication laid out in a clear understandable manner and they just thought it would be better if every feature they offered were it's own app. Now I have to remember which medium I used to talk with somebody and use an app with fewer features.
I miss hangouts.
add faxing
And telegrams.
Hangouts was peak Google messaging. It was iMessage before iMessage. I don't know if it necessarily came first, but all my friends who have iPhones and use iMessage now used to use Hangouts on Android. I think Google has a huge opportunity to be the popular brand and lost it.
Man those were the days. I still use Voice and have years of messages in there, I dread the day they cancel it and I need to find something else.
