Google duo apk can be downloaded from Google Play Store and this app requires Android version 4.1 and up.
Android users seem to really enjoy the video chatting app, which got an icon revamping just prior to its launch. The app became available on August 15, initially in limited countries but then soon rolled out across the world.

Want to check the story? However, you may have to visit the Store fast because the ranking could change as some new apps do after crashing records. It shows that the app has a bright prospect, especially how it was able to break into the top ten of major free chat apps that include Messenger, Snapchat, Instagram and the likes of them. Chat apps like Facebook Messenger (3.9), YouTube (4.4), Facebook (4.0), Pokémon GO (4.1) and Snapchat (3.9) are all behind Google Duo in rating. The software works on Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) and Google coded it to make video calling as simple as possible.
In case you didn’t know, Duo is a simple app for placing video calls and comes with a neat feature that allows users to see a video of the caller before they pick up the call.
Duo is mobile-exclusive and its developer touts fewer dropped calls, regardless if the user is using cellular connection or Wi-Fi. One of the best part of the app is that you don’t need to login in order to use the app. “You can start your call at home, and continue seamlessly even when you head out the door”.
