Google Meet To Offer Portable Mode Soon
According to reports, Google is developing a new feature called ‘On-the-Go’ mode for its video communication platform ‘Meet’, which will enhance the safety and convenience of users while they are on a video call and moving around.
There are two ways to access On-the-Go mode after its release, reports 9To5Google.
Users will be prompted to enter travel-friendly mode if Google Meet detects them walking (using the phone’s motion sensors).
Or users can switch to the feature manually with a new selection in the in-call menu.
Earlier this month, the company had started rolling out a new viewing mode on its video messaging service, allowing users to select “Everyone is a viewer” when creating their calendar invite.
When using Google Meet for large meetings, designating participants as viewers helps reduce potential meeting distractions, such as audio glitches.
Meanwhile, in April this year, the company had introduced a 1080p video calling option for Meet users to improve the user experience.
