Google鈥檚 Duo app faces rivals
Print Edition
KNOCK, knock, Google's video chatting app has arrived.
Duo marks Google’s response to other popular video calling options, including Apple’s FaceTime, Microsoft’s Skype and Facebook’s Messenger app.
Duo isn’t much different from the other video chatting services, except that it gives a glimpse at who is making the call, helping the recipient decide whether to answer. Google calls this feature, “Knock, knock.”
The new app, announced in May, was released yesterday as a free service for phones running on Google’s Android operating system and Apple’s iPhones. Like FaceTime for iPhones, Duo only requires a person’s phone number to connect. Many other services require both participants to have account logins to use their video calling options.
It is the first of two new mobile apps that Google has planned for this summer. The company also is preparing to unveil a new messaging app called Allo featuring a robotic assistant that will suggest automated responses to texts.
