I just hooked it up and got to see my brother's face for the first time in years so thanks Google for making this available for the masses.

Google Duo connects everyone, regardless of OS. FaceTime doesn't.
Google>Apple

What??! No closed captioning?? Both on this "review" where speaker talks so fast I can't pickup a word...and on the Duo mobile app itself??!!

What if you don't have a phone number?
Is there an app that you can use without having phone service?

How is seeing a preview of who is video calling you, a bad thing 🥴🤦🏿‍♂️. IPhone users be saying anything 🤣🤣

There needs to be a standard get rid of other messages apps and only send phones with duo and google messages for rcs features wth make the experience better the video quality needs. To be better!!!!

[tegrity]
