You can download the Google Duo app for free from the App Store on iOS or the Google Play Store on Android devices. One of the great things about Duo is that it’s available on all kinds of smartphones.
You’ll need to allow Duo to access to your device’s camera, microphone, and contact list in order to make calls. Similar to some other popular messaging apps like WhatsApp, you need to put in your phone number to get started with Duo. You’ll be sent a text message with a 6-digit verification code. Enter the code you received to verify your account. Once that’s done, you’re ready to start using Duo.
Upon first opening the app, you may see that some of your phone contacts have already been added to your Google Duo contact list. If someone you know has registered for Duo using a phone number that’s saved to your device, that will automatically be detected and you’ll see them listed here. If you want to add another contact, scroll down to the Invite to Duo section. There you’ll see a list of the rest of your contacts saved to your device that have not registered for Duo yet. Tap the name of the contact you want to invite. Then tap Compose an Invitation. Then send your invitation through text message. Once that contact has registered for Duo, they should automatically be added to your Duo contact list.
To make a call with Google Duo, tap the search bar and type in the name of the person you’d like to call. Tap their name when it appears in your search results. Then choose either Video Call or Voice Call. Once you tap a call button, just wait for your friend to answer. If they don’t pick up, you’ll have the option to send them a message instead. When your friend does answer, you can enjoy your conversation with them. The in-call controls are quite simplistic. Tap the video camera icon to turn your video on and off, the microphone icon to mute or unmute your microphone, and the curved arrows to switch between your device’s front and back cameras. Tapping the three dots in the bottom right corner will give you more options, such as connecting to a Bluetooth audio device, enable portrait mode, lighting adjustments, and other effects. When you’re ready to end your call, tap the red phone icon.

Just wondering isn't Skype, whatsapp call or zoom easier and better ? Does Duo have any added advantage over them ?
They are similar, yes.
@@techlifeunity thanks for clarifying
great video for the technically challenged
Glad we could help!
When you make a video call will your name show up or it shows your google account
Can I use this without load?
I am trying to use my Windows 10 desktop with Duo. I can receive calls. How do I answer the video call ? The only option on my screen is to "End Call". Thanks.
That means you already answered.
It's on my phone. Is it a free service? Great video. Thanks.
Yes it is!
What does it mean when the contact in your history shows “6 hr. ago” and a ‘down’ arrow next to it?
This app is auto download on my phone 😎
This can be done with WhatsApp also .
Can you set up Google Duo to answer automatically
nice video
Thanks
@@techlifeunity your welcome boss
does anyone know how to change your contacts name and/or picture?
How my iPhone doesn’t give em the option to turn it off
How can you do this without phone numbers? My friend uses a Samsung and it won’t let me call samsungs numbers.
I don’t think you can
I LOVE CALLING
Can i call from Philippines to other country using this app?
Google Duo uses your internet connection, so you can call anyone anywhere!
Is it better than whatsapp?
❤️👍
How to download Photo from duo
Dis Duo show on line and off line ?
I tried doing this but whenever i try to verify my number,it always says its wrong even though i've checked it many times
Now seems like i cant attend my upcoming online classes
i want to access my hospital computer system. HOW DO I DO THIS
Does it cost me to make international calls?
Nope! Just requires internet connection for both users.
How do you delete some of the invited
Can you fix your Google duo. So when you call someone. It won’t show your Gmail account when you call them.
you can remove your gmail in settings
Is it free for international?
Yes
Ok I sound kinda dumb for this but how do you change the name of a contact
I believe it pulls from your device's contact list, so change their name in your contacts app
For those of us without unlimited plans: does it use your phone minutes or is it wifi?
It uses data/Wi-Fi
I can't find note option
Can u use duo if you only have a email
You need a phone number to sign up
can i use this with my Google Voice phone number so calls are free?
The calls are already free
Thx but this is look like a whatsapp?
It's sort of similar to WhatsApp, but more focused on video calling!
@@techlifeunity ohhhhh............
If I duo someone from another country, do I get charged?
No, it just uses your Internet connection
Can you still get into google duo with an email ?
You need a phone number
Why are none of the messages showing up on mine
If someone has that duo, and you don't, does duo still access your camera?
In other words are people with duo watching you through your phone without you knowing it?
You both need to have Duo in order to call each other using Duo, and they cannot see you unless you answer the call
Can i use it without google account on ios !?
You will need a Google account
Hi
Is there a way to tell when your friends are on duo without calling them
No
How do you reach someone on Duo with the Gmail address?
You need a phone number to register
What if you dont have there number?
You need their phone number. Try contacting them another way to ask for it if necessary
I'll be on a regular phone call and my girl will call me through Google duo. Whenever she calls me on Google duo and I'm in the regular phone call, it doesn't ring not one time. But will show the missed call.
I can be on Google duo call and someone call my regular number, I'll get the call and everything.
Your phone will not treat Google Duo calls the same as regular phone calls, so your Google Duo calls may be interrupted by regular phone calls, but not vive versa.
how do u send a message?
Google Duo
Unsaved contact on duo mean its been dialled
I am asking my friends numbers so I can message them bc I feel left out bc they don’t have my number yet
Why does it want to call ME instead of the person??
How to tell or know if someone has blocked you on google duo

Please read the both replies as if they're one sentence. For some idiotic reason, TH-cam keeps shadow banning this question:
So if I register for Duo, will contacts that have also registered for it...
I can't see effects or portrait on my Google Duo nd it's updated !!!!
But then also can't see 😔
Went to Google Play and there's not an app that appears with the image you show. It doesn't offer Google Due with that type of image. And in order to know which Google Due to down load, your video is useless.

Yes.
@@techlifeunity Thanks for the reply. So can they automatically see your account? Is there a way to block them from seeing it?
Is Duo free? 🙏
Yes it is
