Through this new smart messaging app, iOS and Android users can do more than just chatting on the app. It can also help in making plans, find certain information, and express the user's emotion easier and more conveniently in the conversation. The best thing is that the more the user use it, the more that the app improves. The concept of the app sounds incredible and CNet even commended it as an "all-knowing Google assistant bot" and this is definitely what makes it unique from its messaging app competitors.
