>Google hangouts (which I use for sms, among other things) has a very poor search feature.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks that a search function seems absolutely basic for a messaging app.

What search function? Do you mean going to gmail.com and searching "in:chat blah"? Even that is terrible.

To make the UX even more annoying, chats are grouped under a special label that's invisible to the gmail app on Android.
