Google Messenger
During the last few hours Google has not only released updates to some of its services and applications , as usual at this time of the week, has also surprised us with the launch of another messaging application And, of course, if Hangouts was not enough, now comes Google Messenger A tool that focuses on messaging classic SMS and MMS, leaving aside instant and free messages over the Internet.
Google Messenger arrives to further saturate, if possible, the messaging application market. However, it does it in a very different way, since you have to understand that it is the default application of devices with Android 5.0 Lollipop A tool only for Android terminals that focuses on classic messages. Something that differentiates it from its cousin-sister Hangouts, which is multiplatform and allows video calls as well as free instant messages over the Internet, and other applications such asWhatsApp
Its use is based on the messaging of SMS, the old text messages billed by mobile operators, as well as its more audiovisual version, the MMSIn this way, it is necessary to have telephone numbers with which to contact this way, allowing you to send and receive messages with anyone in the world, whether or not you have a smartphone Something that makes the application very interesting for emerging markets where this type of message is still used regularly.
It is worth noting its design that, as it could not be otherwise, respects the lines of what is marked by Material Design The style that Google has implemented for version Lollipop of Android. With this, Google Messenger presents simplicity, a great color All this full of animations when jumping from one menu to another, moving everything smoothly A very clean and clear design that allows a user experience very similar to that of WhatsApp
And the fact is that Google Messenger has several aces up its sleeve. On the one hand, the possibility of creating individual or group conversations to send an SMS or MMS to several people. On the other, the expansion of MMS Thus, you can not only send one photoThrough this platform, it also supports videos and audio recordings Content that can be captured through the application itself before being sent. Besides, it also allows the sending of color text and even the introduction of Emoji emoticons By what dynamism is ensured through their chats.
In short, a messaging tool that surprises for being displayed independently through Google Play Of course it is already a trend for Google, allowing this tool to be brought to more users of Android devices (in this case with Android 4.1 or higher) and release updates with improvements that are not tied to updating the entire operating system. It is also fully downloadable free and has extra features such as phone number blocking
