NEW DELHI: Google has rolled out the ability to send multiple photos and videos at once through its chats.
You can now select more than one image or video at a time when sending a message in Google Chat.
The feature is now available on iOS devices and is running on Android devices.
“You can attach up to 200MB of files directly to Google Chat messages from your computer, mobile device, or Google Drive,” the tech company said in its update.
Google Chat Media Picker will let users pick up to 20 photos and videos to send at once.
The tech giant has already announced that it is now starting the process of moving free, personal Hangouts users to Chat.
The company noted that users who want to keep a copy of their Hangouts data to use Google Takeout — to download their data before Hangouts is no longer available in November of this year.
Google said switching to Google Chat will allow users to edit Docs, Slides or Sheets side-by-side, making it easier to collaborate while continuing the conversation. It also includes Space, a dedicated space for topic-based collaboration.
