Share and keep up with people no matter where you are with the Google+ app. Join a hangout, post a photo, or see what friends are sharing while you’re on the go. Use Messenger to get everyone on the same page with fast, simple group chat.
Features:
- Turn on Instant Upload to sync photos from your phone to a private Google+ album
- Video chat with up to 9 friends with mobile Hangouts in Messenger
- Chat with a friend or all your friends at once with Messenger
- Check out the What’s Hot stream to see trending topics
- View the Nearby stream to see what people near your location are saying
Pros
- Beautiful & elegant design to display the images of each post on the iPhone/iPod Touch!
- Super responsive & almost instant display of updates & comments!
- Messenger built within the app with video chat (hangout)!
- Instant upload of new photographs to private album in google+
- Notification settings to filter some annoying notification that spam you constantly haha
- Shake to feedback to google+
- Can upload more than 1 photograph in a single post
- When you press the “+” symbol you can put your friend name to that post so he/she will be notified
Cons
- Google+ iOS app is for the iPhone & iPod touch only, I hope the developer can make a iPad version or Universal version that can be view on landscape on the iPad in full retina display maybe with dual panels.
- The instant upload may accidentally use up some of your 3G data plan if you set to “WIFI or Mobile Network” so make sure you select carefully.
- I haven’t try deleting a photo from instant upload but one of the reviews says it can’t be deleted. I successfully delete a uploaded photograph thou 😀
Overall, this app is so much better than the previous version that whoever created this app deserve a pat on their back and probably a raise!
The previous Google+ is slow in response & hard to navigate and the new update is so much faster.
I wish facebook developers are watching this as the current facebook iOS app is like slow in updating messages & updates that frustrate me often haha.
