Google plans to eventually replace Duo with Meet:
With classic Hangouts on the way out, Google today has two video calling apps. However, that is one too many for the company, and sources familiar with the matter tell us that Google Duo will eventually be replaced by Meet.
This would be so welcome, if true. I have used Google Meet, Google Hangouts, and Google Duo over the past five months. While their minor strengths and differences eventually became clear to me, there is simply no reason for the company to have three video chat apps, especially when Meet does everything the other two do.
Google Duo is an alternatively elegant way to do a 1:1 call, but I won’t miss it. Two less apps to install on my devices!
