This decision is the result of Google placing its consumer communication services — Duo, Messages, and Android’s Phone app — under the leadership of G Suite head Javier Soltero. After the unified team was made public in May, Soltero announced to employees that it does not make sense for Duo and Meet to coexist.

Introduce, kill, merge, kill, split, kill, merge. Why are they so bad and fickle with chat related apps. Duo is good, best performing video calling app on Android I've used. If the merge/replacement with Meet don't kill its quality, I'd be fine but their fickle habit is worrying.

Google is essentially forcing everyone to use Meet. It's in Gmail, but thankfully it can be disabled.
