Google Chat borrows this WhatsApp feature to enhance communication
Video messages are here, but the initial implementation has several limitations.
- Google Chat is rolling out support for video messages, which could make users’ interactions more personal.
- For now, you can only record video messages using the web client, but you can view received ones on your smartphone.
- The feature is currently unavailable on Linux, ChromeOS, and Firefox, and recordings are limited to a maximum of three minutes.
Google Chat is starting to roll out video messaging support to eligible users. The feature is already offered by some popular messaging apps, like WhatsApp, and it aims to make users’ connections more personal.
Google has announced that video messaging is coming to its Chat service. The gradual rollout has already started for Rapid Release domains, with Scheduled Release domains to follow on October 25. The company highlights that it could take the feature up to 15 days to appear on your end.
