Hangouts v11 – just a heads up for those of you, myself included, who uses merged conversations in Google hangouts.

Edit: I read somewhere, earlier, that all of the sms support would dissappear – that’s probably (hopefully) not the case. So it seems that you can send/receive sms in v11, but you’re not able to merge the sms conversations with chat – still stupid. And at this point I don’t trust any info out there…

In googles “let’s make absolutely everything——a separate app–strike” its now time for hangouts to lose its sms integration because sms is so – —f&cking– difficult to do that it needs an app all by it self. Right? :/

Anyhow.. when you update to Hangouts version 11.0 on Android, you won’t be able to merge your Hangouts and text (SMS) conversations.

I guess I’ll be leaving automatic update to off for hangouts for now.
