Google Duo is far too glitchy as well so that's another reason i'll never use it!

      It might have been better just removing hangout altogether.
      It was always problematic one way or another and the same goes for that G+ as well.
      Google badly need's some fresh new thinking.

        If Google would stop changing their messaging app, that would be great

            Different apps providing similar functionality and an app for every major website is what I was always bothered about when first statt using smartphones.

              Funny how people hope for one united messaging platform which does everything and there already is one which people dont want to use since its not googles :/ Yea, i mean skype. But i know, its been around too long and its not hip anymore.

                      Asian people feel uncomfortable talking using video call. Especially if you have a meeting, where we had to sit in one place constantly looking towards the camera or phone. Better have a voice conference call.

                        When will Google realize that people don't like having multiple apps?

                          This company has issues with making clones of the same app instead of putting everything in one App. I hope they fail maybe they will learn something because it's really becoming tooooo much

                            I wish you success against Skype, where you can call, chat and send files. I guess Google will introduce another app for that.

                              Oh wow, two more messaging apps, that's just great!
                              Google, seriously - as much as I love you, please - fix your head and make ONE decent messaging app for text, video calls, voice calls AND business chats/calls! Is that so difficult!?

                                    Google seems to want to touch new lows in absurdity with its messaging platforms.
                                    I yet used Hangout - the buggiest app in the world as it allowed screenshare and was convenient however, I'm not gonna have anything to do with it anymore if i'm not able to do what i've been doing so far with it.

                                        2018 news:

                                        Option 1) Say hello to "Rendezvous", Google new name for re-branded Meet and Chat. Meanwhile Allo will be renamed to Google Chat and Duo will be renamed to Google Meet.

                                        Option 2) Google is winding down support for Meet and Chat due to insufficient demand and to focus on it's core new messaging service that debuted with Pixel 2.
