Google Duo will soon to get a home screen redesign with a ‘New Call’ button. The ‘New Call’ button is said to help make calls more quick and easily. The ‘New Call’ button will also let users call their Assistant “Home” device.
The home screen user interface still have the search bar at the top of the screen while the contacts are display in a new format along with the ‘New Call’ button.
Google said the redesign would reach users in the coming few weeks.
This feature within the redesigned UI for Google Duo was announce through a post on the Google Duo Help webpage.
Google says the new blue-colour floating action button (FAB) for ‘New Call’ will let users start a new call on the app, create a group, see groups and contact lists, and call your “home” device.
New redesigned UI also removes a few functionalities that were available previously.
You will now be able to ‘Send Messages’ by clicking on the contact or group and subsequently clicking on the Message button.
You can ‘Create Groups’ by tapping on the ‘New Call’ FAB and then clicking on the Create group link.
Google Duo users will also be able to ‘See Contacts and Existing Groups’ by either searching for them or via the ‘New Call’ FAB.
To ‘Invite Contacts’ You will have to tap the ‘New Call’ FAB and search for the contact either via the search bar or through the contacts list.
