Google Duo, which overtakes other video calling applications when it exits, will now continue on its way with a different policy. The Meet service, which Google has taken great care of lately, has been a redundancy since it came to smartphones. With the company’s new announcement, it has been announced how the fate of Google Duo will progress from now on.
Google Duo joins Google Meet
Designed for smartphones and tablets, Google Duo was like an answer to FaceTime on iOS with its audio and video quality. The quality losses experienced when you want to video call via WhatsApp or Instagram were significantly less in Duo. But Duo hasn’t had much of a joke since Google started putting more time into the development of Meet.
As the company realized this, they decided to merge Duo and Meet. This merger will take place in two phases. First, we’ll see all the features in Meet come to Duo, though the features already in Duo will remain. After a while, the Meet application will replace Duo.
Meet features that will be added to Duo as follows:
- Customize virtual backgrounds for calls and meetings
- So everyone can join at their own convenience schedule meetings
- Use in-meeting chat for deeper interaction
- Share live content to engage all call participants
- Use real-time captions to better support accessibility and increase engagement
- Create crowd meetings with 32 to 100 attendees
- Integrate with other tools, including Gmail, Google Calendar, Assistant, Messages and more
With this transition, a two-stage plan has been created so that users do not experience an experience. Google Duo has a user base that cannot be underestimated, it would be a big mistake to alienate this audience from Google services.
