Google Hangouts requires enhancements in integration with third-party platforms and better handling of anonymous participants. Features like recording meetings, a whiteboard, and improved screen sharing are needed. Provision for higher video quality and efficient performance under poor connections would be beneficial. Inclusion of file sharing, more interactive options such as virtual backgrounds, and improved security with better user interface navigation are also desired. Extending session time limits and expanding collaboration functionalities are suggested improvements.
