Google Hangouts for iOS Gains Share Extension and Low Power Mode Support
Google has updated its Hangouts app for iPhone and iPad with a native iOS Share Sheet extension and support for Low Power mode.
Google Hangouts for iOS enables users to send and receive instant messages and group messages, share photos, and make video and voice calls using the company’s cross-platform communication service. Users can also connect up to Google Voice via the service to link their personal phone numbers, enable SMS and activate voice recognition.
The Share extension in version 9.0 of Hangouts means users can now share text, links, images, and video from other apps on their device, while the Low Power support essentially means that the app will now automatically turn off video when the device’s battery is depleted to 20% or lower.
The Share extension can be activated by tapping the Share button within the app, selecting “More” at the end of the Share Sheet, and toggling the switch next to Hangouts to the ON position.
Google Hangouts is a free download on the App Store for iPhone and iPad. [Direct Link]
