If you are as annoyed and, as tired of the crap on the former "Hangout"? When you're trying to stay in touch with REAL LIFE friends? Download and experiment with an alternative "Element." I was looking for an alternative and reading two blogs, only, who ranked and listed pros and cons? I have never seen a product that had NO cons.
And the reviews on the play store are excellent (some might be fake) and, those of two extremely technical friends, with over 20 years of Software consulting experience each who gave me the specs and told me why they both use it because of the VOIP option and the video! Especially after the simple setup and their encryption recommendations. So far, I am convinced.
