Yes, your smartphone will have the Hangouts app installed. You can be the
equivalent of invisible by unchecking the 'Last seen' checkbox in the app
settings under the account settings, 'Share your status' section.​

​As per https://support.google.com/chat/answer/162730?hl=en

   - To hide when you were last seen using Hangouts, uncheck Show when you
      were last seen online in your chat settings menu (click the dropdown
      menu next to your name in Gmail). The green status bar or dot will
      not appear next to your name, and your "last seen" state will
not be shown.
       You can still send and receive messages. Learn more

Btw, Marko, I have now joined your father in being part of the 21st
