Google Duo is now completely gone, with the company completing its move to Google Meet as its only video calling service.
Although the Google Duo brand will disappear in 2022, the old features remain in the Meet app. This wear and tear is first identified September 2025but then it was postponed to January 2026. It has been slowly rolling out since then and is now complete.
The rather popular “Meeting call will replace Legacy (Duo) calls” card at the top of the Meet home page, which cannot be dismissed, has disappeared in recent weeks. Over the past few days, we have noticed that the old call history has disappeared along with the corresponding “Call (old)” settings menu on all our devices.
Old features Like Knock Knock (which was a signature feature at launch that shared incoming video feeds), Family and Mirror mode are also gone. Additionally:
- Moments (is a screenshot on an alternate device)
- Data saver mode (alternative is Meet saver mode)
- Low light mode (alternative is video lighting adjustment and Portrait touch for some users)
New features available include live captions, screen sharing, in-call chat, stackable effects and cloud encryption. On the privacy front, Google Meet calls “default to be available in your email.” To change, go to Settings > General and enable “Only contacts can call me” corresponding to contacts.google.com.
Meanwhile, Google notes that “incoming group calls are supported on Nest displays, but outgoing group calls are not supported from Nest speakers or displays.”
