No Multiple Accounts?

I was already surprised that I needed to download yet another google app when Hangouts was working just fine. ALSO, it seems that I can only be logged on to one account in this app. In Hangouts, I could be logged in to multiple google accounts. I am a teacher and have a student account to chat with my students and a teacher account I use to communicate with teachers. I now have to keep the Hangouts app so I can be logged into my teacher account in Hangouts and my student account in Chat (because apparently you need to have the Chat app to see screenshots sent through the app.) Please make this less annoying.

Privacy issue

This app still can access full photo if only given access to selected.

Notifications

It seems that if you have chat open on your desktop web browser you won’t get notifications on your phone.. Aside from that very irritating “feature” this seems decent enough.

Reply Feature

Desperately need the reply feature on chats.

Update

No notifications for a new message and it doesn’t update conversations on my mobile device only if I refresh on my computer

My old conversations didn’t save

My organization switched to gchat and my old chats didn’t save, is there a way to recover the old hangouts chats? Because I don’t want to re enter them manually

This isn’t as good as a I thought

When I downloaded this app, I thought it would be something easy to manage. I was wrong. When I get a text on hangouts, I get a text on here. It’s very annoying and the message layout is strange. Why don’t they make one app that does it all. Overall I recommend google hangouts as a way to talk to people.
