How to Disable Hangouts on iPhone or iPad
This wikiHow teaches you how to offload the Hangouts app's system data, and block all of its notifications, using an iPhone or iPad. There's no option in iOS to disable an app, but offloading can help you free up storage, and blocking notifications will make sure you don't receive any calls or messages on your phone or tablet.
Steps

Offloading the App

Open your iPhone or iPad's Settings app. Find and tap the iPhone Settings App Icon icon on your home screen to open your Settings.

Scroll down and tap General in Settings. You can find it next to the iPhone Settings General Icon icon on the Settings menu.

Tap iPhone Storage in General. This will open a summary of all your storage details on a new page.

Scroll down and tap Hangouts. You'll see a list of all your apps here. Find and tap Hangouts here to see the app's storage details.

Tap Offload App on the Hangouts page. This option will allow you to free up storage on your iPhone or iPad by removing the app's system files. Your documents and personal app data will not be deleted. If you install the app again, your data will be automatically restored. You will have to confirm your action in a pop-up.

Tap Offload App in the confirmation pop-up. This will confirm your action, and offload the Hangouts app from your iPhone or iPad.

Blocking Notifications

Open your iPhone or iPad's Settings app. Find and tap the iPhone Settings App Icon icon on your home screen to open your Settings.

Scroll down and tap Notifications. This option is listed next to a red icon on the Settings menu.

Scroll down and tap the Hangouts app. You'll find a list of all your apps on the Notifications page. Find and tap the Hangouts app here to view and change its notification settings.

Slide the Allow Notifications switch to iPhone Switch Off Icon. When this option is disabled, the Hangouts app won't be able to send you any sound or push notifications on your iPhone or iPad.
