"Best for informal video calls" Posted 2020-12-11
Pros: Google Duo app is an amazing app for android phone users because just like iPhone Facetime facility, it's helpful for android users and iPhone users both.

You can use different face filters during video calling.
Cons: It doesn't support well with more than 2 people during a video call. It is not secure as no security is provided about screen recording. It works well only on high-speed internet connection. It works only with phone number if you aren't interested in sharing phone no. Then it's not for you.

"Great for Video Calls, Not so great for text messages" Posted 2020-06-26
Pros: My boys like to use Duo to video chat with me. It's been a great product with good video quality over 4g LTE and 3G+ data speeds.
Cons: I really don't like how the person can see you when you call them before they accept the call. I also do not like the limited chat ability, that feature is not user friendly at all.
Overall: While I like the video quality, the interaction with the Android App is frustrating and inconsistent with other Google Products. I keep going back to Google Hangouts even though the quality isn't good, it's easier to use.
