Google Allo passes 5 million downloads on Android
Google Allo has been installed more than five million times on Android devices
Well, not exactly. For all of its clout, Allo doesn't look to be the killer service that drew such attention at I/O. Concerns over privacy, and how the new AI Assistant feature collects data to do its thing, have not helped. But putting those issues to one side, Google faces an uphill battle to keep Allo and Duo relevant in a crowded market where most consumers already have their designated apps.
Five million downloads is five million downloads, and if you factor in iOS, the number currently using the service may be higher. But with Facebook Messenger at over 800 million active users and WhatsApp at upwards of one billion, its hard to see how Allo can mount a legitimate challenge.
