Good but.....
This app/feature is very good and is very helpful but I have one problem! I don’t have a phone number so I can’t use the darn thing!!!! On a laptop/computer you can use it online by clicking on a link but I’m not carrying a computer with me to anywhere and everywhere I go! On my iPad (I don’t own a phone) I can’t use the app because it won’t let me sign in without a phone number!!! VERY IRRITATING!!!!! Especially because all I need this app for is to just call my brother so that he’s not lonely when he is walking home from school! 😡😡😡 Also,please could you make the filters available on an iPad as well?!. Thank you.Show lessorangebanana1257
Fabulous👍💜
My friends and I use this app for multiple groups and video calls and messages and everything and it’s amazing😊💙
There are only a few minor technical difficulties with one of my friend’s phone where she doesn’t always see us calling 😐but mostly everything is great 😁and we use it all the time to communicate🤝👋🤙✌️👍❤️
Sometimes it does lag a bit but not much and it’s easily worked out when there are problems (NOT OFTEN!👍)Show lessCinnamonRose💎🍒
Under rated
This is one of there most under rated apps of 2020. I know it’s very simple and doesn’t do much. However it’s super simple to use to the point where even a little kids can use it. And he usually works very well if you have a half decent Internet connection. I mean you can be in the car cruising down the Dallas freeway and still have a decent enough connection. At this point in the Covid crisis I’ve probably used about six different video talk apps. From zoom to FaceTime to duo and a couple others I can’t even remember the name of other than teams. And this just fits in there nicely for simple meetings. So anyway it’s just quite the app.Show lessrezeski
I like the Google Duo app.
I was recently introduced to the Google Duo app by one of my relatives. I was quite cynical about its effectiveness and the quality of the calls compared to WhatsApp. And you know what, although I still make good use of WhatsApp and its features, I’m really impressed with the HD (High Definition) Call Quality, as well as the Video Quality WHEN I’m using the Google Duo App. Although, It did take me a short while to get used to HOW to use the Google Duo App, one of the things I love about it is that you can install it and use it on ALMOST any platform: iPhone, iPad, Windows Computers etc.Show lessAdeSJL5000
This app drives me INSANE
My video freezes when I walk away from WiFi. That’s not the problem though. It used to do that to me all the time on this app. But now when I’m still on DUO and I turn the WiFi off, the video stays frozen even after WiFi is off. I still can hear the person I’m talking to but their picture is frozen.
Then when I go to hang up the phone so they can call back, DUO doesn’t let me answer. I hit the accept call button for the face to face call and the app shuts down and disappears on me. I have to open up my app drawer where all my previous apps that I haven’t closed out yet are, and it’s there. I push on it to open the app and screen back up and try to answer and yet again it disappears. I again have to search for it in my unclosed app drawer and try to hit accept video call. I do that a couple times, it disappears on me a few more times, then finally I close out the app because it won’t let me answer the call.
After closing DUO and all the other apps I had open I try yet again to answer and it won’t let me. I literally have to wait a few minutes to even TRY AGAIN to answer video call on here. It’s driving me NUTS! Fix! So frustrating! If it’s not one thing it’s always another!Show lessLady Itonhead
Pretty good app but many complaints
So don’t get me wrong I do like the app bc my friend has a Samsung so she cant use facetime so that awesome but when me and her are on call the video freezes all the time second it drains all of my battery bc I will have full percent and then in less than 5 min I already have 10% and I know it is not my phone bc before I used this app my battery wouldn’t drain for hours and I even have low power mode on third the audio is horrible like horrible and this isn’t the last thing but this last complaint I am going to put in the review my phone in the like 4 years that I have had my phone it has never overheated but when I am on the phone with my friend on only this app and charging my phone it always overheats for both of us and I know it is only this app bc when I am on any other app even on the phone on a different app it never overheatsShow lessceliamia31
Awesome
This app is awesome the only thing I wish it would let us change the profile picture for when it is a group chat and more emojis to react to messages and also possibly filters/effects for when we are video calling but other than that it’s awesome.dance_56
Excellent video quality
I’ve used this on wifi so far, and it definitely has the best video and audio quality of all the video/calling apps I’ve used (have tried at least half a dozen so far!).
I tried it and several others sequentially, using the same wifi connection so I could compare quality, and it was the best by a long way. Haven’t tried it on 4G yet, but at this point I’m very impressed.Show lessHeli-girl
Puts a smile on your face & twinkle in your eye
In this day and age, communication is no longer a simple phone call. So with the next generation growing up with all of this new technology at their fingertips, they learn to manage with bad connections, Skippy voice and dropped video feed. I am old school! If I’m on a video chat and the service drops or the phone is choppy or the app blinks in and out then I’m mad...I’m highly upset! I would just rather dial the digits and hear a voice.
I have recently switched to the Apple line of cell phones. And have had a little experience with FaceTime. I don’t feel like it’s any better than Facebook messenger which is a joke when it comes to video calling. The Google duo on the other hand has exceptional exceptional video feed message feed and it really does put a smile on my face and a twinkle in my eye to pick up my phone and have a video message that I can see just as clear as if they were standing in front of me from one of my children it just makes my day.Show lessSLawton78
Okay.. but a couple little thing!
So I just got duo a couple days ago because my friend can’t FaceTime on her phone so we tried this. When I first got in the app it was very very confusing! I had no idea what I was doing maybe it’s cause I just got it! But I thought it would be a little easier! Second when I finally got on a call with my friends the audio is awful! I could hear a thing and it kept on freezing and breaking up and sometimes we would have to leave the call then I can’t join back unless they ring me! And I would like where I can see my friends the whole time! Because on my phone (iPhone 11) you can’t go out of the app and see them! But on the other hand on my friends phone (some none apple)she can go out of the app and see us! Please take this to mind! I think if all these changed this could be the one of the best apps!Show lessRtdf
