History and development
Originally called Google+ for G Suite, Currents is the sole remnant of Google's defunct social network
Google+, which the company shut down entirely for personal and brand use on April 2, 2019.
As of June 2020, Google Currents is in Public Beta for
Google Workspace clients. A free trial can be requested.
On February 10, 2022, Google announced that it would be planning to "wind down" Google Currents and transition its users to
the Spaces feature in Google Chat the next year.
