We seem to have one for WhatsApp and google hangouts.
I personally don't like hangouts and don't use WhatsApp . Me and a whole bunch of people use telegram for conversations so I figured a nexus 6 chat would be cool.
All you need is the app. No phone numbers or emails to send to me.

Hey guys.
First things first. I'm not the developer of any of these projects. I just found them and wanted to share them with anyone else who also recently started to use Telegram instead of Whatsapp.
If you're on Windows or OS X, you can check out their native apps in beta phase here - http://tdesktop.com/. I haven't used either of them yet, but they are in extremely active development, as new updates were added just today.
If you want to try the web client, I can vouch for it working extremely well. I use it on Linux on Chrome and it works wonderfully well. It even does Chrome notifications for new messages, and supports everything from group chats, media messaging, changing profile images, selective notifications, the whole deal. http://zhukov.github.io/webogram
Remember, all this stuff is in testing phase, but in my opinion, Telegram is in a position to make a serious change in IMing because of it's open source API strategy as opposed to Whatsapp's "phone phone phone only" system.
Enjoy!
needs a bbm client asap if it wants to really take off.
just one bbm user in a large group will affect it's likeliness to become the main messaging app for the whole group.
I would like to use this app but I can't get anyone off sms. ?

Only 1 of my friends is using it compared to 23 on WhatsApp, will keep it anyway for a bit to see if anyone else in my contact list starts to use it.
Btw. Ubuntu app is now available!
Telegram has been my favorite messaging app for months. Still trying to convert all my friends.
Telegram app has niche market for users keen to message encryption.
I noticed another app just mimic the same layout but using exactly same api, called messenger plus. (previously called telegram +). Not sure why's the different. Same phone number, allowed you to install the 2 apps....

Free, large file sharing, uncompressed image sharing, desktop/web/tablet apps and able to use on more than 1 device, Facebook owns WhatsApp, etc.
Alright, just want to know if people still use Hangouts as their main source of instant messaging or use alternatives such as Telegram/Whatsapp.
For me I use Whatsapp on mobile device as it is the only platform it supports and for a multiplatform solution I use Hangouts as I can talk from my laptop (windows) or from my tablet to ios users as such, but overtime I come to a decision to jump to Telegram, which works with every platform I know which and is feature packed. Hangouts has been a hit and miss, it doesn't feel complete and has become sluggish to use.
Cast your votes via the poll. (if other please specify)
I use Google's new Messenger app. It's been great so far.
I don't do instant messaging. I used to, but I don't like being available. I do join hangouts from time to time but mostly from within inbox in desktop. I use messenger for sms

Lollipop's Messenger app is beautiful and does the trick with everything. Except doesn't show when the other person is typing or reads the texts like hangouts does. But yeah, I agree. Messenger is #1. I don't do IM either. Some of us are grown men lol
Guys I'm talking about instant messaging apps not sms lol
There are thousands of these. The two most popular are Whatsapp and Wechat. What are we discussing exactly?
After Many discussions about what chat platform to use. I think and will setup and maintain with other users a telegram chat group.

Q: What is Telegram? What do I do here?
Telegram is a messaging app with a focus on speed and security, it’s super fast, simple and free. You can use Telegram on all your devices at the same time — your messages sync seamlessly across any number of your phones, tablets or computers.
With Telegram, you can send messages, photos, videos and files of any type (doc, zip, mp3, etc), as well as create groups for up to 200 people or channels for broadcasting to unlimited audiences. You can write to your phone contacts and find people by their usernames. As a result, Telegram is like SMS and email combined — and can take care of all your personal or business messaging needs.

Q: What do the green checks mean?
One check — message delivered to the Telegram cloud and your friend has been notified, if he allows notifications.
Two checks — message read (your friend opened Telegram and opened the conversation with the message).

Q: What are usernames? How do I get one?
You can set up a public username on Telegram. It then becomes possible for other users to find you by that username — you will appear in contacts search under ‘global results’. Please note that people who find you will be able to send you messages, even if they don't know your number. If you are not comfortable with this, we advise against setting up a username in Telegram.
Usernames and search by username are supported in most of the official apps — you can set up a username in Settings.

Q: What can I use as my username?
You can use a-z, 0-9 and underscores. Usernames are case-insensitive, but Telegram will store your capitalization preferences (e.g. Telegram and TeleGram is the same user). The username must be at least 5 characters long.

Please use the telegram beta app if you would like to chat, I personally made the mistake of upgrade the group to a supergroup and screwed over the chat. I personally feel accountable and deeply sorry.

any real trouble shooter in group?
Hi all,
My online retail bussiness involves forwarding dress collection pictures to customer whatsapp group. I do have a Instagram page for my bussiness, in which I post the same content as WhatsApp group. I do many posting in a day and trying to automate my work by auto posting in Instagram from WhatsApp group content.
Requirement :
- At a regular interval my android app to scan my WhatsApp group content for any new messages since last scan and forward those to my Instagram page in background.
I am not an android developer and will be outsourcing a developer to create a new app. Would like to hear your opinion if this is possible to implement and if not other option to avoid manual posting in Instagram.
Thanks a lot
Sri
