Wow! After all the criticism of me and other using a GV # over data only, now you're one of us!? Interesting!
I recommend Hangouts because the GV app is lacking or not fully developed in certain ways.
I don't know if it's required on every phone, but I exclude Hangouts from battery optimization and allow background data.
Hangouts always rings for me UNLESS the call is spam, and that's a GOOD thing.
