Recently, Google announced that Duo will become Google Meet by September this year. Just a few days ago, Google also began rolling out the Meet-Duo for Android and iOS users. The company explains that the merger of these two video-calling apps will benefit users through their comprehensive service.

Users of Google Duo will now have access to features such as in-meeting chat, virtual backgrounds and visual effects, and the ability to start a call with up to 100 participants. 

Google also says that users shouldn’t experience any disruption during this merge, seeing that these two apps already share similar features.

Following the announcement, it is reported that the Google Meet team is working on a new feature as an addition to the Duo-Meet transition that enables its participants to share third-party applications namely  YouTube, UNO!, Kahoot, Heads Up!, and Spotify. On top of that list of apps, the company also added a productivity tool called GQuees – Task Manager for Teams. It indicates that each of these apps now has its own icon within Google Meet, making them more accessible and organised for all parties involved.

 According to an APK teardown by 9to5Google, Google has chosen to turn Google Meet into a third-party app rather than integrating it into its own app. This implies that the feature may be limited to Android and will not be available on iOS or the Web version.

 However, it is still uncertain how Google will organise users of streaming apps such as Spotify and YouTube, but an update is expected soon.
