It seems like Duo is working out. It has more than 500m installs, and isn't installed by default, so it's numbers aren't padded the same way Hangouts' are. All

Allo, despite being shut down got to about the same size as Signal.
- tehlike 8y agoIs hangouts installed by default (i don't know), seem to have a billion installs, which looked a bit too high for both default-install, and non-default install.
- keerthiko 8y agoIt's installed by default on most Android devices, and a large portion of Asia's handset market (India) is dominated by Android, but messaging in India is dominated by Whatsapp. So almost-a-billion is bloated download numbers of Indian smartphones coming with hangouts installed, but none of them using it.
- tehlike 8y agoSignal is rather niche, so is telegram.
- wpietri 8y agoAre you sure it's not installed by default for at least some people? I never installed it, but it's on my Google Pixel.
- piyush_soni 8y agoIt's installed by default only on the Pixels.
- pjmlp 8y agoAs a LG owner I can assure that several LG models also have it by default.
- ovi256 8y agoJust uninstalled Duo from a new Android phone.
