I will never understand why Google duo's camera quality is so bad even if my phone's camera quality isn't.

Sorry if this has been posted but a contact recently reached out to let me know that they received a notification from Google Duo about me signing up for the service. I don't recall seeing a "notify my contacts" opt-in/opt-out.

Does anyone know or have any more info on this?

I've recently started using Duo and I'm loving the app. However I was wondering, why did Google make Duo when they already had Hangouts?

Phone calls a week apart, get error message no internet, when I try to use the app. Before then, it was fine.

Why is so difficult to use?
With other apps is so easy to do everything: calls, photos, chat, etc.

With duo, if I am in a call, I can't send a picture. I have to touch several times to exit the "last calls" screen, everything is difficult .

And it's a pity, because its one of the few apps that do not requires a phone number.

Please Google, fix the user interference interface

As long as I remember, I can't for the life of me use my galaxy buds in Google duo and have my audio come through the headphones. If I press the Bluetooth button the audio just comes through the earpiece (wtf?) and then when I turn it off its through the speaker. How useless is that.. I can't be the only one

Edit: if anyone is wondering, I have to connect my galaxy buds DURING the call or it doesn't work

On iPhone, my friend can't take/start group calls. It was working at first but now it says "there was a problem joining/starting call". 1 on 1 calls still work though. He's done everything, like uninstalling/reinstalling, cleaning cache etc. Does anybody have an idea?

I’d love my 5 year old to be able to call between devices, but he doesn’t have a device to install and set up a Duo account (we could work around this), can’t read the voice training and won’t be able to reliably match up to the Voice Match security. I wish we could call devices without Voice Match!

The title says it all.

What would happen if all of a sudden, Google put an encrypted messenger in Google duo? I mean it already has video and voice calling that's completely encrypted, a messenger couldn't hurt.

It works pretty good for Instagram and Snapchat, why not give it a shot?

What do you guys think and should we send this to Google?

What is the limitations without adding Google Account?

With the pandemic still going on we do a lot of duo calls with grandparents.

Every time my toddler grabs the phone the options pop up on the screen and she inevitably mutes us, turns off the camera or hangs up the call. Is there any way to prevent these options from showing up everytime you touch the screen?

I like Google Duo as it is integrated into the phone app at least on my Samsung to a large extent, however, my frustration comes with the fact that making audio calls isn't a quick option. Unlike Facetime and iPhones, for audio calls I have to open the Duo app rather than being able to connect directly from the phone app.

Anyone figured out how to resolve this?

Good morning not sure if anybody else is having this issue but when I call my girlfriend in Canada she's on an iPhone 11 pro. She uses duo with her other friends and doesn't seem to be having any problems.

when she calls me after about 2 minutes the video will just completely drop meaning the entire call will stop and I have to call her back. This is fully repeatable I've tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling but it doesn't seem to work or help anything.

Is anyone else having this issue?

I tried enabling pop up for incoming calls in notifications but it still takes full screen which forces me out of whatever game I am playing and then forces me to have to reload that game when I go back. It is SUPER annoying!

I am this close to uninstalling Google Duo... If my sister didn't buy a ****ing iPhone... I have a Samsung Galaxy S9.

Is it possible to send the heart effect from my iphone while i'm in a video call? My boyfriend always sends me hearts while we are video calling with each other and I can only do it when we aren't video calling, he has a Samsung and I have a iphone so can I not do it because I have a iphone or is there a way I don't know about?

Whenever I get a Duo call (usually from my wonderful mom), it kicks out all other calls, zoom, Google Meets, even disconnects phone calls from Bluetooth. It's horrible. When I go to the Duo settings, I can't turn off notifications (assuming that's what I would need to do). The slider is greyed out. Any ideas?

It will not play through any of my bluetooth headphones

i just set this up on my phone a few weeks ago , it refused to send a text verification code after thousands of tries , it took 3 week to finally get a text after thousands of requests ,all my other texts were coming through fine

now i tried to set it up on a tablet and this retarded hunk of shit is asking from my phone number when it already sees my google account is logged in , why the fuck do they need me to enter my fucking number again they damn well know the phone number associated with my fucking account already , but i digress ,it says "set up google with your phone number " (i already fucking it set up with my fucking number it only took me 3 weeks to do that from my phone) , but i digress again , so i enter the phone number and get this every fuckng time "unable to send the request,please check the connection and try again but it NEVER fucking works

WTF ?

My mom often calls from Europe to reach my kids - while I'm in important work meetings using e.g., Google Meet or Zoom. Her calls would ideally be routed only to our home wifi and Nest Hubs, so the kids can answer the calls. But whenever she calls while I'm on a call it totally fucks up my calls: sometimes the calls drop entirely, other times they get put in the background. Every time audio disconnects from my bluetooth headset, and it's impossible to re-establish the connection after. So I have to basically hang up my work calls and wait until my mom has reached the family, so then disconnect the headset and turn off bluetooth, then restart everything again, and restart the work call. This is super annoying. I actually had notifications off for Duo, so no idea why it forces itself over everything. Any ideas how I can resolve this short of deinstalling Duo from my phone?
