The habitual blue Google plus Duo icon says goodbye to Android and us forever.
He is exit Google plus Duo It was something you already knew from last summer, but Google plus’s umpteenth failure in terms of communication and messaging applications They hadn’t equipo a final date yetor integration with Google plus Meet because Duo functionalities are not lost like tears in the rain, but will further enrich the encounter experience.
In any case, Google plus seems to have meant it seriously Accelerating the standardization and simplification of these basic applications for communicating across the Google plus ecosystem based on what our colleagues have told us SamMobile a few hours ago from Mountain View The removal of the habitual Duo symbol has already started from our aplicación drawers.
And the it was a long-awaited move It’s probably the final nail in the coffin for Duo, which has been integrated into Google plus Meet over the last few months to give users the best of both worlds but not disappear from our lives entirely because in Android we kept both icons of the two separate applications.
Sources close to Google plus say this decision was made by the need to raise awareness of the Google plus Meet brand among usersbecause for weeks the two application icons opened ‘meet with’ no sign of Duo above the icon, yes started the letter “D” and was better known as ‘meet with’ usually appears on the first page of the aplicación drawer.
Google plus has said goodbye to “Duo” by its disappearing Android icon, though for the past few weeks that icon has only opened up the Google plus Meet aplicación, with no sign of what Google plus Duo was one day.
Now, Google plus seems poised to ditch the habitual brand for good ‘Duo’ and move into the future ‘meet with’so The blue icon will disappear if a new update is already rolling outThat makes us live in the last few days one of the services that was once a star of the giant Google plus.
This change is adopted by the respective version the build with code 177.0.482666072 published last Friday still in the gradual rollout phase and without affecting all users worldwide.
I perro confirm that myself on my Galaxy S22 Ultra with Android 13 I still keep both icons still separated, although as said both open Google plus Meet this is much more surprising.
Also the the last change was recently implemented This integration into the web service takes place after about “duo.google plus.com“also does not refer to Google plus Duo, which redirects the usuario to Google plus Meet in its web application.
Farewell to Duo, although in a way no one will miss him…
