According to The Verge's latest report, the new update could be a great help for people to catch up with their friends and family during the lockdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

One-on-one calls on Android and iOS will also have the Snapchat-like masks and other effects, including the terrifying mask that will turn your mother as a giant flower, which is a special filter for Mother's day. Techcrunch jokingly said that Duo might make your mother switch to Google Meet instead.
AV1 video codec will be introduced to Google Duo to improve video call quality, as reported by the company last month. The additional feature will be increasing the size of the group call from 8 to 12 individuals, and will also be introducing a side-by-side photo mode.
