Set up Google Duo

Set up Google Duo for web

Important: Google Duo is available on Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.

Important: If you skip this step and you don't verify your phone number, you can only receive calls from people who you've previously called.

Enter your phone number.
Click Get verification code.
Duo will send a code in a one-time SMS message to the number that you entered. (Carrier text-message rates may apply.)
Enter the code that you received in the text message.
- If you don't receive a text message, click Resend.
- If you still don’t receive a text message, click Back to make sure you entered your phone number correctly.
- If you continue having problems verifying your phone number, visit the verification troubleshooting article.

People with your phone number can see that you use Duo and call you using the app. If you connect your Google Account, they can also connect with you across Google services.
Duo can periodically send your contacts and location to Google.
If you call someone not saved in your contacts, Duo will display your phone number so they can see who’s calling.

Video calls with anyone in your contacts who uses Duo: Call friends and family across different devices like Android, iOS, computers, Nest Hub, Nest Hub Max, Lenovo Smart Display, and JBL Link View.
High quality audio and video: Your call’s quality automatically changes, based on your connection.
Knock Knock: You can see a live video preview before answering a call from one of your contacts.
End-to-end encryption: Your calls are secure and can only be seen by you and the person you're talking with.
