Any idea on how you can integrate Google hangout in an Android App ? I do not see any API that is currently available. Is using WebView an option ?
there isn't anything at the moment and I don't believe a WebView version will work, because hangouts needs the camera plugin that googles installs and it's not available on mobile browsers.

How can I start a Google Hangout in Android with an Intent?
The new Hangouts API will allow developers to build their own experiences inside Hangouts and build real-time applications that use Hangouts, similar to Google’s own built-in YouTube player. The YouTube player lets Google+ users in a Hangout watch videos together at the same time.
Google also announced screen-sharing, Google Docs editing and sketching as new built-in features for Google+ Hangouts today, thereby forcing developers to think beyond the obvious integrations to more creative uses of the Hangouts API when building their apps.

From Hangouts API Reference:
The Hangouts API provides the programming interface to Hangouts video calls. It provides a JavaScript interface that enables your app to do such things as list the Hangout participants, share data between instances of your app in the Hangout, control some aspects of the user interface, and control the microphone, camera and speaker settings.[...]

I'm new with Android Auto and I have a queation. I have an app that the user only have to select items and pay. Can brings my app to Android Auto? Because I was searching a lot and I only find examples for media and messages apps. Studing the examples in the SDK of the media and messages, they not provide a layout for the Android Auto app.
Android Auto as of now supports only Media and Messaging Apps integration.
It can be done, but currently the custom app SDK is private - you have to ask Google for access to it.

I want to know how to integrate google plus in my app. Currently I am developing news application, in which I would like to have a news sharing option for things like facebook, twitter, gmail, and google plus. How can I achieve this functionality?
Sharing the Android way doesn't involve integrating services one by one. That would require you to update your app any time a new service launches that you might want to integrate with. Instead you use the ACTION_SEND Intent.
This blog post gives a good intro to its use: http://sudarmuthu.com/blog/sharing-content-in-android-using-action_send-intent
When you implement sharing this way your users can share using any app they have installed on their device. If they install a new app that can accept sharing intents your app will immediately be able to integrate with it with no changes from you. The Google+ app accepts these sharing intents.
You can easily share to Google+ with ShareCompat, you only need the support library for that.
