Four Reasons Google Chat Is A Bad Chat App

Hello, this is TheTechBoy with a report about Google Chat. UPDATE 4.25.23 TO DELETING MESSAGES

 Google Chat is Google's free chat application. All you need is a Google Account. All you have to do is visit chat.google.com or download the Google Chat app on your Android or IOS device. So it sounds good but why is it such as bad chat app?

No Editing 

    You cannot edit messages after sending them. This is a basic function of Discord, iMessage, Slack, and even YouTube comments. This is a fairly basic feature of chat apps and Google should add it. 

No Deleting

    You cannot even delete comments after sending them. Pretty basic chat feature. It is now on IOS 16 iMessage and other chat applications.  Update Yoou can delete messages

No Calling 

    You cannot call anyone from the application. Free applications like Discird can allow you to do voice calls. You can do a Google Meet video call and switch to a voice call, but it could be integrated better. 

It is Hard to Reply

    In other applications, you can click a chat and click a reply button to quote the message and reply to it. This makes responding to previous comments hard and clunky. 

So do you have any other gripes against Google Chat, leave it in the comments and we will get back to you and may even add them here.
