To help people in times of crisis, all the apps are now changing their features as per the need. Apart from increasing the number of people on Duo from 12 to 32, there is also news of a new feature being added and that is AR effects, which matches the facial expressions of the users. Through its many recent updates and changes, Google Duo app is giving tough competition to the video calling features of Zoom and Facebook.
Android Police’s Report According to Google, Google has confirmed to the publication that the group calling feature of Google Duo will soon add up to 32 people. At present, only 12 people can make group video calls simultaneously on this platform. Earlier in March, only 8 people could be part of a group video call. To remind, in April 2019, the group calling feature of Google Duo started with 4 members.
It is worth noting that Google had earlier also said that the number of members in the group calling of Google Duo would soon be increased, although at that time it was not clear how many people would be added to the group calling. The claim of 32 members was also reportedly made in a promotional email.
In its promotional email, Google has promised that it will add AR effects to Duo calls, which will change based on users’ facial expressions. Let us tell you, AR effects are still present in Google Duo, but currently it does not change with facial expressions.
It is also not clear when this new feature will be rolled out for Google Duo. However, it would be safe to assume that this new update will be released in the coming days, as Google has reportedly started sending promotional emails.
Apart from this, Google had recently announced that now Duo users will soon be able to make group calls through the Web version platform as well. This new feature will soon be rolled out in the coming weeks. First its preview will be available on Chrome and then it will be released on a large scale. Apart from this, a new family mode has also been added to this video calling app, which will provide you fun effects and masks to make the time during video calling even more fun.
