Google Announces 'Google Capture' for Hangouts

Google announced a new Hangouts Capture app Tuesday, a new way for Google Hangouts users to capture photos of a Hangout in progress so they can relive the magic of the event later on.

“Google+ Hangouts bring people together, and when they do, all sorts of awesome can unfold,” Google’s Jeremy Ng said in a Google+ post announcing the app.”

The app lets Hangout users take photos of a Hangout in progress, saving all of those photos to a shared folder available to all Hangout invitees. Photos can be viewed while you’re in the Hangout, while you’re browsing through your photo albums, and by visiting the original Hangout post on Google+.
