Features
Smart Reply
Google Allo makes it easier for users to respond quickly and keep the conversation going, even when you’re on the go. With Smart Reply, one can respond to messages with just a tap, so you can send a quick “yup” in response to a friend asking “Are you on your way?” Smart Reply will also suggest responses for photos. If your friend sends you a photo of their pet, you might see Smart Reply suggestions like “aww cute!” And whether you’re a “haha” or “:P” kind of person, Smart Reply will improve over time and adjust to your style.
Smart Assistant
With this feature you can ask questions, look for places, share your favourite Youtube video, look for an address, navigation etc. This happens directly on chat, so that you’ll not be required to leave the conversation because of some address search. Just type @google to bring your Assistant into any group chat. And of course, you can also chat one-on-one with your Assistant in Allo.
Incognito mode Chat
Worried about privacy? Well, Google has solution for you. Just like the incognito tab in chrome browser, they’ve introduced a similar functionality in allo. When you chat in Incognito mode, messages have end-to-end encryption and additional privacy features like discreet notifications and message expiration.
You can also message friends who aren’t yet using Google Allo through SMS or, for those using Android, app preview messages.
