I've lost track of all the messaging apps they had:
I'm sure I'm forgetting a few.
Allo
Duo
begging they bring back whisperSHOUT from Allo to Google Messages :(
that was awesome
Google Talk
There's also Duo, which turned into Meet. it's basically Google Facetime.
Google Talk was the name before it became Gmail Chat
Hangouts was so close to perfect before they blew it all up.
Now I'm using a mix of Chat and Voice and it's terrible for everyone. Voice doesn't even support RCS from what I can tell, and all my messages with iPhone users are full of reactions. It's so annoying. I've had the same Google Voice number for over a decade, why is this so frustrating?
Voice is soooo frustrating. It had so much promise! But they haven't added anything to it in what 5 years? Maybe longer
tbh I don't know that I would remind anyone at Google that Voice exists, I think that's just about the only thing that is keeping it alive.
They also killed YouTube DMs
Duo (videocalling app)
