A new instant messaging app, is already available for download in Android terminals. Google wanted to merge a messaging service with the possibilities of its search engine through a "bot" (it is a computer program, imitating the behavior of a human).

Allo offers service options such as WhatsApp or Line that includes emoticons, stickers, voice notes, file exchange and the possibility of customizing and drawing on the photographs before sending them. In addition, the possibility of talking with an intelligent assistant data that is normally consulted on the web is added. It can be incorporated into the Google assistant to the conversations, so that it provides all types of information adding in front of the @google conversation. The assistant is still in the "Preview" version.

Allo is Google's new bet to grow in users, the new app will try to compete with services such as WhatsApp, Wechat, Line or Telegram.
