Google is retiring its Meet (original) app in favor of the up-to-date Meet app. Those using the service have to download the newer version.

I'm stumped...there was a "new" Meet app. Why didn't they just use the same "new" app as an update to the old app? Why make users download another new competing, confusing thing?

This is Google out doing itself. You couldn't write this shit.

They changed Duo to meet, and that's the built in video call button on stock android, and now it's fucking broken. Google needs to figure their shit out. It's like they launch new products that do the same fucking thing every 5 minutes to keep software designers employed. I can't count how many products Google has had for video calls. Just fucking pick one and leave it tf alone.
