Google has pushed a new update for its Hangout app on iOS. iPhone, iPod touch and iPad users can now download the Hangouts 2.0 app to experience a new user interface with improved performance. Google has added some new features like Stickers support, video messages, location sharing and optimised for iPad’s big screen with a two-pane conversation view.

Features List:

– Stickers: express your mood with fun animated stickers. Think of them as emoji, but even more awesome.
– Video Messages: record and send short videos to everyone in the conversation. Now you can really say what you need to say.
– Location sharing: send a map of your current location with a few simple taps. Great for coordinating the whole gang when you’re ready to hangout IRL.
– Optimized for the iPad: enjoy big, beautiful video calls, and a two-pane conversation view. Perfect for the iPad’s larger screen.

The update is now available on the iTunes store for free.
