I love Google chat, but I'm not a fan of the bubble look. I'd love it to go back to how it was before. Edit: Google chat's great still, but when it automates the commands (like for bold, italic, etc..), it adds extra work to turn it off on the format settings. It could be better if we had an option to turn off that feature

Life will be fine without being able to add chats to homescreen... I was unhappy to be forced to switch over to this app when I opened the old app. I had to delete all the shortcuts to chats that I added to my phone home page. Could there be an "add to home page" for individual chats? Pinning conversations in the app isnt the same. I'm sure getting use to the new app would be fine, but I really want to have that one feature back.

It has room to be better. Years and not much has changed, no competition against other platforms. Emoticons becoming emojis seems excessive as a forced feature and removes the personal layer of expression that shouldn't rely on clicking a button every time to cancel this feature. A simple option to disable it could fix this issue. The biggest issue is that "read" receipts don't work for individuals in group chats anymore, and this diminishes the app's effectiveness, even for professional use.
