Why it’s important
To help teams do their best work in the hybrid work world, as many of us begin a return to office, we continue to make enhancements to Google Meet to help ensure that video meetings are inclusive and collaborative no matter the location or device preference.
We hope this feature makes it easier for everyone in the meeting to collaborate in real-time while having a conversation—all from the same tab.
