Google Duo access through phone dialer?

[Claykin]

On Android 11 in the phone dialer settings I could switch from Samsung's home grown video calling app to Google Duo. I can't find this same setting in Android 12 beta. Anyone know how to change to Duo as default?

Go to contacts > pick who you'd like to vchat with > more > select video call method.

Thanks for your reply, but to have to go through Samsung contacts is just nuts IMO.. Plus I prefer to use Google contacts.

And when I check in Samsung contacts it says I have specific people set to "ask first" but the phone dialer isn't respecting this setting.

I can't imagine Samsung intends for it to work this way in Android 12.

For the time being I switched to Google Phone for my dialer and that has worked around this issue. Samsung, fix this problem.
