If you have this app you will notice the main new features right away as there is now support for +hangouts which is Google�s group video calling service. +Hangouts is available on the web version of Google+ since day one and is very much like a video chat room and users can join and leave the +hangout of their authorized circles anytime they want.
Google+�s messaging feature which was called +Huddle has been renamed messenger and for the first time this also include picture sharing. Users will also find that they are now able to +1 comments and there is improved searching too. Users can also customize push notifications and more. The full changes and updates include joining hangouts from your mobile app, sending photos in messenger, +1 on comments, map view in profile for places you lived, improved +mention support, share posts with individuals and an improved public search for people.
Google has gone all out with their new social networking strategy and Google+ is enjoying a reasonable amount of success so far but whether it will take over from the likes of Twitter and Facebook is yet to be seen. The new improved Google+ app for iOS is available for free from the iOS app store for both the iPhone and the iPad.
