Google Hangouts for Android was a messaging and video calling app developed by Google. It[SQ]s

no longer available

as a standalone app. Google shut down the classic Hangouts app and its functionality has been integrated into other Google services, primarily Google Chat and Google Meet.

If you[SQ]re looking for similar functionality, you should use :

*

Google Chat:

For text messaging, group chats, and file sharing. This is the closest replacement for the general chat features of Hangouts.
*

Google Meet:

For video and audio calls, both individual and group. This replaces Hangouts[SQ] video calling capabilities.

Essentially, Google Hangouts for Android is obsolete. Its features are now spread across different Google apps.
