Instant messaging app WhatsApp is the most commonly used worldwide. However, WhatsApp has been in controversy for a long time due to the new privacy policy.
Many other instant messaging platforms such as Telegram introduced themselves in combat. But Telegram did not get success from WhatsApp.
But now in the competition of WhatsApp and Google, a great chatting feature has been provided in the Gmail app.
Gmail users can integrate the Google Chat app into Android and iOS devices. Meaning that users in Gmail will now be supported with Meet and Room for video conferencing with mail.
Gmail’s chat app was available for Google Workplace users. Which is also being made available for personal account. Simply put, users will now get four tabs at the bottom of the app.
After rolling out the new chatting feature, the Hangouts app can be closed by Google. Until now, Gmail users were chatting through a hangout.
