With the rise in popularity of video conferencing apps, companies have been making efforts to promote and improve their services. Google Duo is one of them and it's just seen some new improvements to it that users will appreciate. In the latest update, Google added four new features to the platform to help people stay connected.
According to an official post, Google will soon be introducing a new video codec that will boost both the quality and reliability of video calls, even if you're using a low-bandwidth connection. The other feature that many will appreciate is the increase in video call participants from 8 to 12. Google is also aiming to increase this number in the coming weeks, so it's a good way for groups to get in touch.

For example, you'll now be able to take photos during video calls that will be shared to all call participants automatically.
