I have been using! So that was released on the blog saw many negative comments, saying it was for Google to focus on launching an app to compete with WhatsApp, just days after Google announced the Allo app.
Spaces think very interesting, objective and fast! Besides being somewhat customizable, change the group's color, cover for the group.
I'm enjoying it, I was never to use Google+ and Hangouts, but Spaces attracted me simplicity and obejtividade, I like that! Simple at all, quick to add new people. Simplicity appeals to me.

I tried the browser version before the app, I figured it would show me all the options on browser. I guess it's just a browser issue.
