The Google company officially submitted in August, 2016 the application for video calls under the name Duo. The application is available to iOS and Android Google[1].
One of distinctive features of Duo is function which shows the image phone calls of the making person to the answer to a call. Duo takes base of contacts from the notebook of phone.
Exit of Duo was announced in May, 2016. The application is an obvious competitor of Facetime service in iOS which has similar functionality.
Google already has a service supporting video calls — Hangouts. With the advent of Duo the old service will not stop work.
To begin to use the application, the user should confirm number of the mobile, having received the SMS. The interface of the program is very simple: the call key and the video image from the front camera of the smartphone. The application supports transfer of HD video.
Interesting feature of Google Duo — the Knock Knock function: before answering a call, the user sees the image from the front camera of the interlocutor. The application has no function of a group video chat and a text chat.
