  • No Audio call option on web version?

    While chat on iOS offers video and audio call options, the web version only has video. Why no audio? Breaks up flow to not be able to just click an audio call icon while working on laptop instead of charging device for audio call

    And why a split of messaging btw single and group chats? A chat is a chat, no need for yet another option.

    You had already nailed it with Hangouts. Bring it back!

  • Amazing🤪

    I can text my friends on here such a great update I can set my self as away…
  • Wow, kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk0000! (This isn’t for you, devs)

    I didn’t even know about that update until after I read your review! Who knew that the update wasn’t compatible with iPad! (did you know that I use iPad, too?) I haven’t installed the update yet (if you didn’t send that review, I would have wanted to)- that was a close call!
  • Needs a little TLC

    I use Chat as the main Communication platform between most of my friends and family. It’s missing some basic features. For example: ability to edit a message after it has been sent. Ability to delete images after they have been sent. Would love to be able to delete a gif that I mistakenly sent. Images are slow to load compared to hangouts. The new spaces feature is handy, but a little confusing. The app is slowly getting better. I can easily send messages from my mobile device or PC. The app easily manages multiple profiles. The search chat feature is nice. I love that I can make a video or voice call straight from the app. Currently on my pc the Chat app shows up as another chrome window rather than a standalone app. Making it really difficult to quickly check messages. Not sure it that is a bug in the app or a new feature. Overall this is a great app with a bug or two and some missing features. Nothing that cannot be fixed in an update.

  • Review please about Google chat

    Please try to improve this Google chat features wherein you can message right and edit your messages if there are any errors in you're wording since at the moment you don't have these features that you can correct or edit feature plus add video call features thank you
  • (RESOLVED) Read receipt avatar has been removed for the IOS Google Chat App

    Per Google, in a 1:1 message, a small avatar of the person you chat with appears to the right of the last message they read. You can’t turn these read receipts on or off. This is no longer the case for the Google Chat App on IOS devices. During one of your most recent updates, the small avatars were removed from Chat so we can no longer tell when our messages are read. This issue has been shared by others but I’m also posting in hopes that it will be addressed sooner rather than later since you introduced the issue as part of a recent update.
    (THIS HAS NOW BEEN RESOLVED!!)

  • App not suitable for iOS 12.5.6

    A couple of months back, I started chatting with people like normal and then suddenly when I would click on a group chat it would say to update to the latest version. When I would click ‘update google chats’, it would open the App Store and show the update button. After I had clicked the update button it would let me know that I needed iOS 14 or later but it would let me update to the latest version available for my device. This is normal and works fine for other apps. But when I clicked the download button it would actually download and the plugin just kept popping up and never stopped unless I had clicked cancel. Like I said, this is normal for other apps and works perfectly fine with other apps. But with google chats it just doesn’t work.

  • I’d say it’s okay

    The right functions and everything, I don’t know why people need to send pictures?? Ya’ll are clowns anyways great app overall
  • I Miss Hangouts

    To start off, I got this app before because my friend didn’t have a phone number and it was great for texting and calling for the duration that it was available. I’m not saying the app is horrible, the features are amazing; threads, formatting, status, it’s amazing. It’s the app itself I’m not too happy with. First of all, in hangouts I could see all my groups and contacts in one place and I could name group chats which you can no longer do. Second of all, it doesn’t just let you switch to dark theme as the light theme is really a pain. And lastly, the app was so much easier to use before, there weren’t all these extra complications, hangouts was ideal.. this wasn’t.

  • Love it!

    I love your app! It is so good for communicating and fun to put your status. The spaces are good and the internet connection works from me, though I think you should add video call like in hangouts instead of google meet, it doesn’t work well, hangouts is better… love your app…. Make some changes!
