Google is known to be the most used search engine today. But it is also known for the launch of countless services that cause a sensation after the presentation of them but that little by little they lose the little bellows they had gained. An example of this would be Google Allo, the search engine's instant messaging application, in the purest Apple Messages style. Endless effects for your messages, huge emojis, stickers that you can send to all your contacts ... The latest news from Allo is the integration of incognito chat in group conversations, a point in favor of privacy advocates.
Google does not give up and updates Allo
A couple of months ago, Google Allo was updated by launching incognito chats. This tool allowed the user to enhance the privacy of their individual chats by integrating some aspects to the application:
- End-to-end encryption of messages to avoid being intercepted in the sending process
- Private notifications in which the content of the message is not displayed
- Expiration of messages that are automatically deleted after a certain time
These tools that favor private conversations They were only available in individual chats, that is, group chats could not benefit from these privacy benefits.
La version 10 Google Allo brings with it the integration of these incognito chats in group conversations, so it will be possible to keep chats between more people in a safe way, guaranteeing that the messages will not be intercepted by third parties.
In addition, the update brings with it a notification manager, in which we can decide which notifications have priority over others and which ones we want to reach us. Thus, we can prevent the notification center from collapsing with information that we do not want.
