Google fixes some Hangouts bugs with an update
The application in the style of WhatsApp of Google is updated again on the platform Android On this occasion to correct several failures or problems that the most common users have detected after their last update just a few weeks ago. And it is that the reception of text messages together with instant messages has given more than one problem, making it necessary to iron out some of these issues with a newupdate that refines its operation and gives more control of the content to the user.
This is the version 2.0.2 of Hangouts for Android A version that brings solutions more than news, but which are welcome to correctly manage all messaging from the same application Among these corrections stands out a problem or function that could have caused additional expenses to many users It is the transformation of SMS text messages into MMS or multimedia text messages when sent via a group conversation And it is that many companies bill MMS differently from SMS, which may have incurred unexpected expenses for users who have wanted to communicate some type of information through this tool to a group of people.
Along with this behavior change, an option has been included that allows its managementIn this way, the user can control whether text or SMS messages sent in groups are transformed into MMS or not. Simply access the menu Settings, scroll down to section Advanced and check Messaging in groups or uncheck it, depending on the user's intention. A good way to avoid scares on the telephone bill.
Another problem that has been resolved with this update also has to do with the integration of SMS messages in this application. More specifically with the points of network access (APN) or the lines of the mobile operators necessary to send these messages. Something that in the previous version was not properly configured and that, now, from the menu Settings , the user can control and manage in more detail. With this, if there is a problem, the user can access and select his APN to be able to access the Internet and the networks of his company in case the application has not detected it correctly.
