Getting started with Google Hangouts

Google Hangouts is a free service from Google that allows you to talk to family and friends on your computer or mobile device. You can even talk to each other live over video chat and use Hangouts to make phone calls and texts. It's available on its website, as an app for iOS and Android, and as a plug-in for various web browsers.

Watch this video from Google to learn more about Google Hangouts.

Use Google Hangouts to keep in touch with one person or a group. Available on mobile or on desktop, start making video or voice calls today. If you're not on the latest version of the Hangouts Chrome extension or app, update it to get the latest features and fix technical problems. Before you update the extension or app, you need to have the latest version of Chrome. At the top right, click More. If the icon is green, orange, or red, update Google Chrome. Now call any phone number in the world from your Hangouts app without using your cell plan minutes. Most calls to US and Canada are free! Download and install the Hangouts Dialer to start making phone calls in the Hangouts app. After installation, you can access all voice calling features directly from Hangouts or use Hangouts Dialer as a shortcut to make phone calls from the dialer screen in.


As with most of Google's services, almost all of Google Hangouts is completely free to use. However, using Google Hangouts to call a phone number outside of the United States and Canada does have a cost-per-minute rate. You can use this international calling rate calculator provided by Google to estimate how much a phone call might cost.

Before you start using Hangouts, there are a few steps you'll need to take. First, you'll need to make sure you have a Google account. If you don't have one, you can review our lesson on creating a Google account to get started.

Accessing Google Hangouts

  • hangouts.google.com: Simply visit the Google Hangouts website and sign in using your Google account. This is the interface we'll mainly be focusing on throughout this lesson.
  • Gmail: Google Hangouts is included and turned on in Gmail by default. It's located at the bottom-left of the Gmail page.
  • The Google Hangoutsdesktop apporextension: In the Chrome Web Store, you can download an app or extension for Google Hangouts. You will need to use Google Chrome as your browser in order to download either. They're almost identical, and both open a new window for Hangouts from your browser.
  • The Google Hangouts mobile app: Available for both iOS and Android, the Google Hangouts app allows you to chat and make video calls on the go.

The Google Hangouts interface

When you first open Google Hangouts, things will look pretty empty, but that's only because you haven't chatted with anyone yet. The interface is relatively easy to use and gives you access to all kinds of things, including your contact list, recent conversations, and settings.

In the constant search for social interaction and fun during isolation due to the coronavirus pandemic, people have taken to video conferencing to catch up and have fun.

They're using services like Zoom and Google Hangouts, which we've reviewed to tell you which ones are best. But it turns out you can do a lot more than chat on camera.

There are fun games and activities you can do (besides putting a funny background on in Zoom) to have a laugh or two to pass the time. So here are a few ideas we've seen put into action over the last few weeks:

1. Jackbox Games

We've been over this one. If someone has purchased Jackbox, he or she can share their screen and allow others to remotely log in to play. As long as everyone can see the screen, they can use their phones to play along.

2. Charades

An easy one with people on camera.

3. Crossword puzzles

They should take no time at all!

4. Watching television together

I just got invited to my first Netflix party using, well, Netflix Party (which is a Google Chrome extension that allows people to watch a show/movie at the same time with a chat attached). Descargar fnaf 1 pc.

5. A talent show

Shout-out to my family for suggesting this one for our next big call.

6. Karaoke

7. Pictionary

H/T to Elite Daily for this idea. You can use a Zoom whiteboard for it:

To use Zoom's whiteboard, you'll want to click the share screen button located in your meeting toolbar, select the whiteboard, and click share. You should then see annotation tools that will let you use your mouse to draw as you would for Pictionary. You can take turns sharing the screen's whiteboard depending on who's turn it is, and you can put some in charge of keeping time for the person who is drawing.
