Google Duo Video Call on Laptop

Google Duo is a popular video calling app that allows users to connect with their loved ones across the globe. While it's available on Android and iOS devices, many of us want to use it on our laptops as well. Unfortunately, Google Duo isn't natively available for PC or laptops yet. But don't worry; we've got you covered.

Until Google releases a Windows version of Duo or a web application, your only option is to install an Android emulator like Bluestacks on your laptop. This will allow you to run the Android app on your PC, giving you access to Google Duo. However, please note that using this method may not work with your webcam, which is necessary for video calling.

We're keeping our fingers crossed for a Windows release or web application of Google Duo soon. In the meantime, if you spend most of your time at your Windows PC or laptop and prefer doing video calls from there, you might want to explore the possibility of using Google Duo on your PC.

Here's how you can use Google Duo on your laptop:

1. Open a new tab in your browser.

2. Click on 'Voice call' or 'Video call'.

3. In the top-right corner, click on 'Video' or 'Voice call'.

4. Select a conversation or start a new chat by clicking on the left side of the screen.

Some additional tips to keep in mind:

* If you don't see the video call icon, it means video calls aren't available for that particular conversation.

* You can also block numbers in group calls and remove group members if needed.

Google Duo has recently been released for Android and iOS devices, so chances are high that you're already using one of these devices. The app allows you to make video calls with multiple contacts, with a maximum of 32 participants per call. You can also use Google Meet to make calls on your computer without your phone nearby.

Important note: To create group calls, you need to be using Google Chrome M86+ or Microsoft Edge v79+. Additionally, calls made through mobile data plans don't use mobile minutes, but you do need a mobile data plan or Wi-Fi connection to make calls.

In summary, while Google Duo isn't natively available for laptops yet, you can use an Android emulator like Bluestacks to run the app on your PC. With these tips and tricks, you'll be able to make video calls with your loved ones from the comfort of your own home.
