Google recently integrated its Duo and Meet apps into a single offering. Meet (original) now appears with a new green logo for Android users. Users can access the new Duo-Meet app on Android TV to schedule and accept individual and group calls. According to reports, the TV must have Android 8.0 Oreo or higher.
Once downloaded, users can access Duo through the app drawer on their TV and add it to the favorites list to access it through the home screen.
Preconditions
-
Stable internet connection
-
Android TV with Android 8.0 Oreo or higher
-
USB camera and microphone connected to your Android TV (if a camera or microphone is not built-in)
Steps to set up Google Duo on Android TV
Step 1: Download Google Duo on Android TV via Google Play Store.
2nd step: Sign into your account.
Step 3: Select “Grant Access” and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.
When using Android TV Box, users will need to connect the USB port of the camera to it. The app does not work on a non-Android TV with Chromecast support. Users could record audio using a USB microphone while connected to Android TV, but cannot adjust audio on Duo calls using the remote.
