We have seen Google update many of their apps already to support the last version Android 7.1 Nougat, just recently Hangouts received a new update to version 14 bringing some pretty cool new features.

What’s New?

Change Log:

  • Starting a new group chat has been rolled into “New conversation”
  • The top area of “New conversation” screen is now sticky
  • “People & Options” have been split into 2 separate items now – “People” and “Options”
  • “Archive,” “Delete,” and the “History” toggle have been moved into the conversation’s Options menu

 

One of those new features are to create shortcuts for starting a new voice, video and text chats which can make you use with Hangouts a bit better.
