Google to combine its two video-calling apps, Duo and Meet, into a single video app called Google Meet.
, revealing that it is combining two of its video-calling apps to create a single video streaming platform that it will call Meet. The two video platforms that will be combined include Meet and Duo. The former is a streaming video platform used to engage as many as 250 people in a single video chat. Duo is a free video chat app for iOS and Android.Besides combining Duo and Meet, eventually will also eliminate Duo leaving Google with a single video platform, Meet.
Meanwhile, Duo has a lot in common with FaceTime as it was developed for one-to-cone video chats rather than the large conferences that Meet and Zoom are used for. By integrating Meet and Duo, you can start a meeting from just about anywhere. One advantage that Duo has is the ability to start a video chat by simply calling a person's phone number instead of relying on someone to click on a link or tap on a giant"Meet" button.
Dave Citron, the director of product for Google’s video products, said,"The Duo mobile app had a lot of sophistication, especially under the hood and in emerging markets, where network connectivity was sparse or highly variable." Citron says that on the web, it’s different; There, Meet is the much more developed web platform"creating the base of the new combined system.
Google says,"As part of our mission to build a connected experience for all users, we’re excited to bring our video calling and meeting technologies together into a single, powerful, easy-to-use solution. Video communications is a major area of focus for us and you’ll continue to see our investments in Google Meet to help people to connect, collaborate, and share experiences on any device, at home, at school, and at work.
We’re committed to making the transition from Duo to Meet as smooth as possible," Google said. In 2020, Google started offering Meet free to users and also pushed out more than 100 features and improvements for the app.Get the most important news, reviews and deals in mobile tech delivered straight to your inbox
