Make calls, send texts, and check voicemail with your phone or computer. You’ll also have the key ability to transfer your old texts (SMS/MMS) from Hangouts, which option 1 does not allow.
The alternative is more akin to what classic Hangouts does on the web.
Option 2: Text, make calls, and check voicemail that sync to your Google Account (chat features not available with this option). RCS allows for high-resolution photos and typing indicators, but you’ll be using the exact same QR code pairing process available today that requires “your phone to stay connected” to the web browser. Option 1: Send and receive texts only (chat features available with this option). However, the new desktop experience will not let you use RCS “chat.” The biggest will be a significantly upgraded “Messages for web” experience that lets you make calls and check voicemail online. Customers will have the option to use “another texting app,” but Messages is getting a major update that’s tailored to Fi customers and adds many classic features. Google announced as much last week (and also revealed that a free version of Google Chat is set for 2021). Hangouts users are encouraged to start using the Messages app. 
In addition to announcing a Phone subscription program, Google today emailed Fi subscribers about how to “Move conversations to Messages by Google.” Support documents lay out in detail what to expect and that Fi texting in the Hangouts app will stop working at the start of next year.
