Ratings and Reviews
New format update was upsetting, otherwise works perfectly
The new format is off-putting and unnecessarily dark. In an attempt to be modern, the app has been downgraded. It doesn't look terrible, but compared to the previous format it is far inferior. Said previous format was much more simplistic (though not oversimplified) and clean, it was essentially perfect. The new format, although still clean and simple, is not perfect. The "read" symbol just floats awkwardly at the side of a text, and as mentioned previously it's very dark. Most of my friend group uses google chat to communicate, and upon the update taking place we've all been quite unhappy with it. Of course, it's still the best way to communicate for us (we all possess different phone brands so for the two Apple users out of our large friend group, it's much more efficient to talk to the rest of the group and for them to talk to us. In short, although the function of the app is amazing, the modernization of it has ruined its aesthetic;It looks more like the default messages app or whatsapp and fails to stand out as a result. I suggest adding a setting to switch between formats perhaps, as I know not everyone is unhappy with it, but for those who are it's quite important. Thank you for reading this.

Hello Google chat
How are you doing all and i hope you’re fine and I want to inform you that the google chat app has a problem you need to fix up for now because for me am a crypto currency’s guy and I used google chat for my business app with my friends and families and other stuff members as well the problem is that if you create a google account now and you’re access to use google chat within some few days they will restricted 🚫 your account without doing any bad things and that’s what makes mad because of my crypto business doing and I’ll lost all my bitcoin and some other stuff I needed and please google and I want to tell you this because it’s not good for me and I don’t feel comfortable with it so please try to change it for us so that you can make Google chat become better or best App to use for chatting and other stuff or maybe you bring a new law that if you’re doing bad things on google chat they can give warning ⚠️ on it but if you didn’t stop it then you can suspend the account just like weeks and then give the person come back for his google chat and i hope you to read my message I did here thank you and have a good day 😃
Disappointing after Hangouts
Google Chat added the ability to have rooms where specific topic threads can be created. That’s really nice and a feature we were hoping for coming from Hangouts. Unfortunately, that’s about where the improvements end. Google Chat is at its best on the mobile app, but if you’re using it regularly, across mobile and in the desktop chrome extension, you’ll quickly see the questionable choices made by the developers. I used Hangouts and now use Chat in a professional environment, for more casual short form comms, and it’s clear after 6 weeks of heavy use that Chat wasn’t designed for anything more than light usage. It’s completely unwieldy with more than 20 active conversations. The alphabetical sorting of conversations means hunting down the person you were just talking to. The conversations are spaced relatively far apart and take up way too much screen real estate. The color scheme is blindingly bright. Et cetera.
If you’re only using the phone app and only for chatting with a limited number of friends socially, which is clearly the use case they have decided to laser focus on, you’ll be fine with it. If you’re on the mobile app only, ok. If you’re hoping to do more with it, you should look elsewhere for a more thoughtfully designed, and scalable, communication method.
