Google Duo's interface is as minimalist as it is intuitive. On your device screen you'll be able to see the image that your camera is capturing both from your front and back camera with a simple button that lets you access hundreds of your contacts. And that's it!

Tapping on people logged in your address book from your phone's contacts app is the only way you'll be able to start a call. The party receiving the call must also have Duo installed on their phone, of course.
