Google is planning to replace Duo video calling app with Meet: Report

Google recently announced that Meet's peak daily usage grew by 30 times with three billion minutes of video meetings and almost three million new users

Google Duo has become a popular video calling app in the four years since its launch and now a new report claims the search engine giant is planning to replace Duo with Meet.

According to a report in 9to5Google, the new head of Google's communication services, Javier Soltero, doesn't see any reason for both services existing.

Instead, Soltero is reportedly spearheading an initiative known as Duet (Duo and Meet) that will see some of Duo's features integrated into Meet, including end-to-end encryption, 3D effects, and contacting users for a video via phone number.
