Allo looks like the most messaging app you already use, like Facebook Messenger and iMessage, it allows you to send a sticker, draws it on the photo and sends the media from your phone. In many ways, it’s almost exactly like Google’s Messenger and Hangouts app; however, it is a deep integration with Google’s artificial intelligence. With most other messaging platforms, the usefulness of the app is contingent upon joining your friends. But thinking that everyone can know on the board, there are so many possibilities

First of all, you will notice at Google Allo that pops up when anyone sends you a message. You will see the most common phrases are like “ok” or “understand it”. For now, Google’s suggestions are relatively simple. The app is currently pulling from the default list for all users. Once more people start using the app, Google’s AIlo will become smart and people will start suggesting personal phrases based on their speech.

Better App to Use For You Out There

Recommended answers are adding a good bit those are useless in your message or cannot really come back from answering, so it rejects easy (more polite) text messages. The amount of time to send a consistent reaction is so small that there is almost no excuse to answer

Aye goes deeper though. Google Allo also includes a chat assistant called “Google Assistant” which you can basically search on Google. Auxiliaries like Siri or Cortana or Alexa do a lot of work, except that you write it instead of talking.

The Google Assistant can be called in any text message, and the answers to the questions are shared with everyone in chat. Can answer questions about helpful weather, directions to nearby restaurants or places. This is basically Google now made right in the messages you are already sending.

For now, the best search for people who are answered by Google Search or Google Voice Search is common and almost identical, it uses the same AIlo to process the requests. Such as “Show me restaurants nearby”. A familiar looking Google Search result card will appear You “What is the weather?” You can also ask follow-up questions and then “What about this weekend?” Their ability to use Google Search goes beyond any other digital assistants, including Siri and Alexa.

In the long run, to be really useful, the assistant will need to use the data already collected from all other Google services. Google Search, Maps, Drive and Calendar can share information to a Google Assistant one day and Along with the suggested reactions, things start to enter horror land here. From a privacy perspective, it seems a bit weird and aggressive.

The last important feature is the Incognito mode, which is fully focused on security. Incognito mode enables end-to-end encryption and increases the level of security between two users at different levels. The most important thing is that Incognito mode is an opt-in feature, and privacy assistants are fighting for encryption in all major messaging apps by default.
