Google Duo to get a redesigned UI with a ‘New Call’ button, company confirms

Google Duo is all set to receive a redesigned home screen with a ‘New Call’ button, which the company says will make it easier for users to make calls. The search giant has announced the new feature via a post on the Google Duo Help webpage. The ‘New Call’ button will allow you to start a call on Google Duo as well as create a group.

One will also be able to check out groups and contacts lists. The same button will also let users call their Assistant “Home” device. The new home screen user interface (UI) will still have the search bar at the top of the screen and the contacts will be visible in a new format along with the ‘New Call’ button. The latter will look like a blue-coloured floating action button (FAB).
