Google+ updated with hangout initiation
Last week we heard that Google+ was goingbto update to allow for phones and tablets to initiate hangouts.
They said it should roll out by the end of the week. Well, Friday came and went, and no update.
Today, my “market sense” was tingling as I saw my phone say there was an update, but I couldn’t get it.
says there's an update...
...but not showing it here 
That usually happens with me, it means an update is ready, but just not in my area yet.
True enough, less than an hour later the app updated… Allowing me the ability to start hangouts and a new photo UI… Etc…
(just a note – some on G+ said they couldn’t find out how to start a Hangout… you have to first go into Messenger, and initiate a ‘message’ with some folk(s) and then you’ll have the hangout button).
However, my phone, without the front camera still won’t do hangouts, and the indicator of which photos are uploaded hasn’t shown up as the screen keeps saying it’s loading (and just keeps spinning and spinning…).
Also, the update brings you:
So if your phone hasn’t told you to update already, or you haven’t got your G+ on yet, go snag the new version now.
