I use hangouts with my friends and for other things. Since getting the Note 7 I've noticed it doesn't receive any notifications or update any chats really unless I actually open hangouts. This is on wifi and mobile data.

Is this happening to anyone else?

Mine Works. Check you notification settings.

Aren't they(Google) pushing Duo now?

They have said that hangouts will be hanging around (couldn't resist) there are things hangouts does that the new apps dont.. specifically group chats and group video calls. Apparently hangouts is used a lot more in business settings. I forsee a rebranding of it to something more productivity based than the very anti productive name hangout.
