Manage Contacts on Google Hangouts
Manage or Delete Your Hangouts History : TEXT HANGOUTS
You won’t be able to tell if the individual has removed/uninstalled the Hangouts app from their smartphone, but just so you know, no one can totally remove Hangouts from their Google Account unless they delete the whole Google Account or Google suspends their Hangouts.
Your conversation won’t be interrupted. The individual you’ve banned will remain in the discussion, and you’ll be notified that he or she is also there. If you open the Hangout, you’ll be able to see this person’s messages; other members of the group won’t be informed.
It’s more difficult with Google Hangouts. If you create a chat window, however, a notification will appear informing you that they aren’t using Hangouts at the moment. The friend list won’t show any indication if users are online and idle. To see whether someone is online, open a chat window.
The procedure to remove people from an Android handset is very similar. To delete contacts on an Android device, tap and hold them until you see a check mark next to them, then hit the Trash button in the top right corner.
The most common reason for losing your contacts is upgrading your phone’s operating system. When updating with new applications, contacts may be accidentally erased or overwritten.
Hangouts is not a phone service and does not provide you with a phone number. If you enter your carrier’s number into Hangouts, it will be used as caller ID.
