Allo is already looking to be more fun to use than Hangouts ever was
The release of Google’s new video-call service, Duo, has already come and passed and has left many people wondering where in the world Allo is at. Google is still testing the app and has yet to reveal any details regarding a release date, but the folks at Android Police were able to get their hands on it. An earlier report this week stated that Google will keep its current messaging platform, Hangouts, but will be geared towards businesses with Allo and Duo taking its place.

Hangouts already includes many features and add-ons that we love and use frequently, which include the addition of stickers for conversations. The problem with these stickers is that they are mostly boring and don’t really add anything to conversations. It seems that Google is solving this problem with Allo by providing sticker packs at the start, including some NSFW ones to have some fun.

In total, Allo will reportedly include 24 different sticker packs, and the one that is drawing the most attention so far is named “Julio the Bull“. From the screenshots above we can see Julio is seductively shaking his tail-feather, as well as creepily pinching his own nipples. This will be sure to spice up the conversation if things get a bit stale, and hopefully get a few laughs in the process.
We wait with baited breath for the release of Allo, and with Android Nougat reportedly being released as early as this coming Monday, we may be in for a bit of a weekend surprise.
