Sagebrush posted:me, 10 years ago: "holy goddamn, imagine if i had a 2ghz processor and 4 gigs of ram in my palmpilot instead of in this big old desktop. i'd never need another computer again!" at this point it's mostly an interface thing, not a processing power thing you can run microsoft office on your phone if you really want to but it takes forever to do anything with it

it's called allo because it's populated by allphones: people who would rather be communicating by some means other than the one they're using e: oh i guess that's a canadianism oh well

How SMS works. "If they’re on an iPhone, they’ll receive an SMS with your name, the contents of your message, and a link to download the app. They can then download it or — if they want — just reply via SMS. Google has set up a full SMS relay so that your recalcitrant friends can avoid installing it at all if they don't want to. If they’re on an Android phone, something new and intriguing happens. Google is calling it an "app preview notification," and basically it shoots a notification directly to your Android device instead of going through SMS. Your friend will get a notification that looks and acts almost as if they had the app installed in the first place, message content and all. It means they won’t incur any SMS fees, either. Your recipient can reply within the notification, or tap on it to install the app." http://www.theverge.com/2016/9/21/12996170/google-allo-review-assistant-messaging-chat-app
