The only thing iPhoners had over Android is Facetime and iMessage...and FaceTime bout to get killed

Once awareness about it spreads people will use it. Especially if versions of Android going forward come with it, and more crucially if it works on iOS too. This might actually do some damage to Facetime since it's OS agnostic

Like awareness for Hangouts was suppose to spread right? That shyt does the same thing as Duo AND MORE and that shyt FLOPPED straight to Hell

I have Hangouts on my iPhone right now and it came preinstalled on Android. Still flopped [Jayz Voice]

I really don't understand this thread. You can get every google app on iOS as well as the Apple apps.

If Duo was better than FaceTime all Apple users have to do is download it. Am I missing something?

Also, Duo has been out for a while why is this thread just being made like it's brand new?

And why do google apps perform better on iOS than Android? Hangouts could make calls on iOS months before the Android version could.


One other point when comparing the two. You need a carrier number for Duo to work. I have 2 phones but use the same Google Voice number for both. So I can only use Duo on one of my phones. Ironically I use it on my iPhone and not my Android.

There was no need to be so disrespecfoe

And Hangouts is clunky as fukk. I still don't know how to make a call on it.

My bad breh

Hangouts is cool for me, works when I wanna make or get calls. Texting and shyt is easy as fukk. I remember them google talk/voice days when you couldn’t send/get pics. Now you can get pics and videos. I’m on an iPhone tho, shyt probably still trash on Android

Breh, I'm pretty much strictly Android-only with phones and tablets but you're crazy if you think iOS users are all of a sudden gonna switch to Duo. It would make no sense

For this bullshyt? Boy u gon be video chattin with yaself

Gonna be using Duo and wifi when he can just use his bathroom mirror



If they continue on their current course, Google is never going to make any application that kills an iOS feature. The ubiquitousness and convenience of iOS services will always be more successful than the alternatives Google provides even when Google has more (and sometimes better) features and functionality. No casual iOS user wants to hear "hey go download, sign up and configure app XYZ" when they're trying to do some routine shyt that's already seamlessly baked into the OS.

Like everybody else is saying, until Google truly integrates these apps and services in the core OS and mandates that Google Android (different from just Android) devices are shipped using these apps and services by default, they're never going to get much traction from the masses on their own side, much less across multiple platforms.

What's wrong with FaceTime

android suck. long time iphone user switched at 6plus to s7 edge and regret it everyday. bout to get the iphone 8 asap

iphones are also WAY more secure & hack proof than androids.

saw an iphone on the ground at a parking lot the other day and didn’t even bother snatching it. it’s nothing but a paper-weight to anyone who’s not the owner.


my homie found a samsung s5 last year and it literally took him 5 minutes to google how to factory reset it using the power & volume buttons.



He’s been rocking that s5 ever since

You right that its completely worthless to steal an iPhone these days unless you shipping it overseas. I do believe Android is starting to go down that route though, so for phones that are not rootable, say the US S8 and Note8, they would be paperweights too.

Yes I have friends and family but I don't wanna see their ugly mugs all the damned time... Your voice is good enough I'll see you when I can.
