Google Inc. continues to make innovations and recently released a previously announced private new messenger from Google is Allo. It is a kind of continuation of the story with a light communication, started Google Duo.
The idea reminds Telegram – chats, group assistants. Register here quite unusual for tech – account not tied to Google, and the phone number. Activation takes place via SMS verification – a popular decision among the messengers.
The design of the application is beautiful and unobtrusive, easy to use interface and fully adapted to make full use of. Without leaving Allo, you can invite people from your address book to install the service. As a result, they’ll get an SMS with a link to download.
The main advantage of the new product is a personal assistant from Google. Google Assistant their capabilities reminiscent of Siri, but he can not voice chat – all interaction occurs only text. While the release did not take place in Russia, so the assistant is responsible exclusively in English. But this does not prevent him perfectly understand requests for the great and mighty. Weather, alarm clock, tickets, and the like useful things.
Another chip new messenger from Google are various effects of sending messages: increased font (goodbye, caps), photo editor.
I think that is the future of Allo – mainly thanks to the assistant.
