It is really cool with a messaging app that best assist users or should it be renewal time for the list of best messaging apps on Google Play Store?

Allo comes with a Smart Reply function that’s created to limit the amount of time users are typing content.
Google has built artificial intelligence into its new Allo “smart messaging” app to deliver a better chatting experience.
Through Google Allo, users can send messages as usual to your friends, and it also comes with a sticker integration, and the ability to send pictures and so on.
Messages can not be forwarded from secret chats and if the sender/receiver deletes a message on his/her side of the conversation, the app on the other side of the secret chat will be ordered to delete it as well. Those who want to “shout” can send big text bubbles.
Google Assistant can be used as a personal assistant in Allo.
Conversations in Allo will be encrypted, according to Google. This feature can help you determine travel time from one place to another, check out the cheapest flights to a certain destination, and discounts. But Google is committed to rolling out Assistant much more widely, in a bid to make us as dependent on it as we are on the search box. It will even suggest when to leave for a destination to ensure users don’t miss an important event. Google doesn’t say whether any Android-based smartphones or tablets are incompatible with the software, so any device running Android 4.1 or later should work with Allo.
The release of the app absent the feature has rankled privacy groups. “Free for download today: Google Mail, Google Maps, and Google Surveillance”. If a user receives a message while in Incognito mode, its contents on the lockscreen are invisible, making it completely private and secure. The app also can analyze what’s being said and offer suggestions on what to say next.
That’s not it. Google Trips can do a lot more like automatically organising your trips, showing you your reservations and bookings for your flight, rental auto, restaurant and hotel. Now, all non-incognito messages are stored by default and records last until the user actively deletes them. The artificially intelligent assistant is Google’s differentiator in its quest to capture some of the consumer messaging market from incumbents like Apple (iMessage) and Facebook (WhatsApp and Messenger), both of which have a massive head start.
