Features

Versatile for different meeting needs

In addition to chat and phone/video calling, the app includes a range of other communication tools designed to make connecting easier than ever.

Useful built-in tools

Google Meet includes key capabilities that stand out compared to other options, including:

• Online conferencing
• Video chat
• Integration with other Google applications

Organize high-resolution video meetings
You can create a video conference with up to 250 participants by sending an invitation link. If you’re using the Enterprise plan, you may also get a speed dial option with a dedicated meeting phone number—useful for joining while you’re on the move, even when you’re not using mobile data.

Encrypted meetings
Google Meet is built to support secure video conversations. You can communicate through text chat and share files and images during the meeting. Video meetings are encrypted during data transfer, helping keep meeting information confidential.

For extra protection, a meeting administrator can require participants to enter a call access PIN, ensuring only invited users can join.

Quick and simple setup

• Create a new meeting, or
• Join an existing meeting

On both desktop and mobile, you can start a video call and send the access link to participants, or invite people through their email contact details.

Highlights

Google Meet also includes interactive options that improve engagement, such as:

• Q&A sessions



• Polls
• Hand raising so participants can signal to speak without interrupting

Real-time captions powered by Google’s speech-to-text technology are another major advantage. Captions make it easier for attendees to follow along, regardless of language skills or hearing needs—especially helpful in diverse groups.
