How do I use the Newest Version of Hangouts?

[AC Question]

Newest Version of Hangouts

Within the past month there was a major update to Hangouts and now I can't find any way to send an SMS, MMS, or Hangout to multiple recipients. In the previous version when I selected a contact I was asked "anyone else?". Is there a setting I'm overlooking?

Welcome to Android Central! Tap the big "+" button at the lower right, select New SMS, pick a contact, then pick another, until you're done, then tap the big round button with the right arrow right under your contact selection area.
