Google's brand new video calling app has been launched to take on Apple's FaceTime, Microsoft's Skype, Viber, and others similar services. Fulay while responding to a query in a Google+ post about the missing feature in the Duo app said it is 'coming soon' without revealing an exact timeline. According to Google Product Lead for Communication Amit Fulay, the app will soon allow audio-only calls. Don’t forget to share what you think about the new app in the comment section below.Google's Duo app that was first showcased at I/O this year and recently started rolling out globally to users will soon gain a new feature. You have successfully installed Google Due on your iPhone or Android.

Step 1: Open Google Play on Android or app store on your iPhone. You can still install it from Play Store on your Android or iOS device.

Using the file manager, navigate to the download folder and tap the app apk to start the installation.

Go to Settings and enable ‘Unknown Sources’ from security section.

Download apk file from the above download link.

When you’ve already downloaded the apk file, then it’s a lot easier to install Google Duo on your phone. If for some reasons you were unable to download it directly from Play Store, then here is the apk download link for you: Some Hope for PC UsersĪs of this writing, the Google Dup app is available on mobile only, but the company is of the opinion that it is possible that a PC version of the Google Duo app rolls out pretty soon so hope is still alive for PC users… Google Duo APK: It is not exactly known how helpful this feature would be or what was the intent behind its designing but essentially what it does is that it shows a blank grey screen to the other side when a user is, say, replying to a text message that just came in during the call or digging out a contact number from his contacts list. In-Call View BlockingĪnother new feature of the app is that it blocks the view during video calls to the other side if one of the users is browsing any other part of the phone. Apple users would be able to take benefit of this feature only if the Google Duo app is open on their phones, otherwise not.

This does not work for strangers whom they have not saved as contacts into their list of contacts on the app.

Plus, this works only for people users know of and have saved into their contact list.

However, anytime they think that it is not such a good idea, they can opt to deactivate this feature anytime.
