Google updates Hangouts with GIF keyboard for Android 7.1 Nougat devices

Hangouts for Android has just been updated to version 15.0, which brings support for sending GIFs using image keyboard. Unfortunately, as mentioned earlier, this new feature won't work on other devices that won't run Android 7.1 Nougat.
Aside from the new addition of the GIF keyboard, the newest Hangouts update should also fix a notifications bug that was brought by the previous update.
Many Android users reported that notifications from a single person would show up with the sender's name twice. Well, the latest update should address this issue.
