Google + App now available for all IOS devices

And it took just 16 days, the newly launched Google's social, broke the ten-million-member mark - even though the service previously accessible only by invitation. A success for the competition for each and needed more than two years. Million users of Android phones were already before the start of the service to access the corresponding mobile application - here, finally Google has control over the new arrivals.


Until now, the iPhone is the only IOS device for which there was a Google + App. After updating the Circles, Huddles and streams are now present on the iPad, iPod Touch, Google has also expanded the functions and improved performance and stability. New notifications are in addition to this, was added into a circle to be Huddle functions: IOS users can now hide or silently make a special Huddle Huddle and reject invitation (not including the host will need to ensure so far as blocking).

However, the application is not optimized for the iPad: Goolge + may look acceptable, but the 2x mode is clearly pixelated. Even so far is only an English version available for download. The success of the offer is also explained by the clear arrangement in message stream (Stream), fast chat with friends (Huddle) and the ability to sort of so-called acquaintances in circles (circles).

The message stream is divided into three parts here: First, in the incoming list (Incoming) - is where all messages from one user in the Circle be represented, without these being listed in a separate circuit. Second, the news flow of the members of their own circles. And thirdly - Greetings - Nearby the area, it displays all users in the area.

The latter only works if you have enabled the location of the mobile query. Features that Google + Although the Internet provides, but which are not yet part of the mobile, hot hangouts and shareware or parts. Via Hangouts start video chats and conferences. Google to install when you first start a free browser plug-in.

And more importantly, as a key option in social networks, is the rapid sharing of contributions. This function is not listed in the apps. These restrictions affect IOS and Android mobile phone users alike. A drawback for users of the IOS-App: photos you take with your phone camera can not automatically find their way to Google + or Picasa.

The Android App mastered this useful, because time-saving feature.
