Google Hangout for PC [Windows 10/8/7/XP] – Free

Muhammad Ishaq

Google Hangout is one of the best & secure communication apps. The tech giant has made sure that this product is available for all major platforms like Android, iOS, Windows & Mac. However, it is mostly preferred by smartphone users, because it allows them to use it as a default messaging app. Make calls through it or just use it for messaging purposes, all depends upon a user’s choice. Likewise, this app is installed as a default messenger in the Google Pixel devices. Long story short, if you have used it on your smartphone, then you’ll also like using Google Hangout for PC.

Audio & Video Calling Service

A good thing about Google Hangout is that it lets you make audio & video calls for free. But this service is only available for users who have entered their Gmail account inside the app. Because without it, you’ll not be able to access the Google Play services on PC, which is necessary for using the desktop version of the app. Another great thing about Google Hangout is its facility of making good quality calls with poor network facilities. Even if you have a slow internet connection, the app will still be able to provide you HD voice & video calling services. You can use it on mobile data, Wifi as well as broadband.

Sharing Moments With Groupies on Google Hangout

Before WhatsApp, Google decided to add an amazing feature in Google Hangout. Yes, it was map sharing, which helped people share their locational status with others. For this cause, all they had to do is enable the location services on their device and use the app’s services to share their location with groupies.

Moreover, during a video chat like Google Duo, you can share the same locational status with other users. All you have to do is pick your exact location by yourself or let the app pick it out for you. Either way, you don’t need to end your call, but just share your status online. Same implies for both solo video calls & group calls.

What’s Unique?

Most of the communication apps don’t allow you to share all formats of files. But with Google Hangout, you can send any format file without much of a hassle. That’s the main reason why people prefer using Google Hangout for PC. So they can upload the file directly onto the app’s interface and then send it with a single click on the send button. But if you are sending a large data folder, then it would be best for you to first compress it (Winrar or .Zip) and then send it.
