Google yesterday announced the release of their video calling app on their blog.The video calling app named ‘Duo’ has been anticipated for a long time and it seems the wait is over.
Popularly described as Google’s take on Apple’s FaceTime, Duo is a video chatting app that “takes the complexity out of video calling.”
Some of its selling points are its simple interface, end-to-end encryption, and the fact that it works seamlessly even with poor network connections.
There’s also a Knock Knock feature that let users know who’s calling before they answer a call, something FaceTime doesn’t have.
The new video app uses phone numbers and it’s available for Android and iOS devices.
