Google+ for Android gets a visual refresh
Early this month Google released a major update for their Google+ mobile app, but it was only available on Apple's iOS. Today Google announced that redesigned Google+ was finally making its way to Android.
We continue to work toward a simpler, more beautiful Google, and today we’re accelerating these efforts with a new Google+ app for Android phones.Vic GundotraSenior Vice President
The big new feature is that mobile users can now start a hangout from their phone, but lots of other changes were included as well. New improvements include:
- Visual refresh of the stream and improved navigation
- Initiate a hangout from the main menu
- Support for ringing hangout notification
- Support for post editing
- Messenger suggestions for people you may know
- Download photos from posts or Messenger conversations
