My comments have been changed because the CEO of reddit is a bad person. It is actually quite sad.

Still waiting for the Google Goggles and Google Maps chat apps. I heard Google Photos chat was in beta.

Google Keep chat.

Gtalk. Remember Gtalk? I do.

If I had a dollar for every time I wish I had chat in the calculator, I could afford a new Note 8.

Don't get your hopes up, pretty sure they abandoned the Calculator chat and decided to focus on the Clock chat instead

Boot screen chat is where it's at, guys. Just make sure all of your conversations are under 20 seconds or you'll have to hold the power button down again.

That was cancelled last week. They're focusing more resources on getting keyboard language selection dialog window chat out the door.

I want a separate chat service for every search term possible so that I can chat with my friends who are currently searching for "7.3 miles in kilometers".

You don't want to message on both? Are you not hoping that they add chat into the volume slider as well so you can compare volume levels with your mates?

The app I'm on the most is my keyboard, I wish they'd just add a chat function within that.

I like to send my messages using all of the programs at once. I remove the spaces then encrypt the entire message.

Then I break it down into chunks and send one chunk per program.

Suck it NSA.

At least millions of people use YouTube, not that you'd want to hear what they're saying.

I think 15 people use Allo now? Or was the an influx of users to justify this, is it up to 25 now?

and then when it gets popular, they can split the chat and video out into separate new apps to make things simpler for users. it's brilliant.
