How to arrange for google meet?

Google Meet is one of the most popular video conferencing apps around. But to use it, you need to know how to make and schedule meetings.

Luckily, there are multiple ways to schedule Google Meet calls, or start them right away. Here's how to do both on your computer or phone.

1. Open Google Calendar on your computer or phone and tap the plus sign icon to create a new event.

2. Tap Add video conferencing or Add Google Meet video conferencing. Google will generate a meeting link for you.

3. Tap Save to make the meeting.

You can then select the meeting on your calendar to see the link, which you can share with anyone you want to invite. You can also click Join with Google Meet to open the call right away.

There are two ways to use Gmail to schedule a Meet call.

1. Open Google Meet on your computer or phone and select New meeting.

2. Select Start an instant meeting or Get joining info to share if you want to start a meeting right away.

3. Select Schedule in Google Calendar to make a meeting for the future. Refer to the Google Calendar steps above for more information.

Google Meet lets you schedule a video call by sending your participants a link, or through using Google Calendar. You can instantly start a call, too. In this lesson, we'll show you how to host your meeting in all three of these ways.

Updates: Google Meet's user interface has changed since we made this video. The updates are reflected in the steps and pictures below.

Once people have joined the video call, you can carry out your meeting. On your screen, you’ll notice your video tile as well as the tiles of the other participants.

In the lower toolbar, you'll notice that there are more functions on the right-hand side. Let's go over the two more commonly used icons...

On the bottom toolbar, click the three dots icon. This will provide you with more advanced options.

• Open Gmail.
• In the Meet section, click New meeting.
• To send the meeting invite via link or email, click Send invite.
• When you're ready to join the meeting, click Join now.
• Before you join your first meeting, make sure to allow permissions for your Microphone and Camera.

Google Meet is one of the most popular software options for creating a remote meeting. This platform automatically creates a special phone number and virtual meeting room for you and your team and places it on everyone’s calendar. All you have to do is fill out some simple details about the meeting.

If you've ever scheduled a Google Hangout, you may wonder how it's different from Google Meet. Google Hangouts is a free tool provided with Gmail that allows you to jump into a video call, whereas Meet is a more robust platform with more features that is provided under Google Workspace (formerly G Suite). Google Meet is preferable in a business setting.

Here’s how to create a Google Meet session for your team.

Visit meet.google.com, which will take you to the Google Meet homepage where you can schedule a meeting.

Click on the green button that says "New Meeting" in the lower right corner of the page. You may need to sign into your Google account first, or create one if you haven't done so already.

After clicking on the button, you will be given three choices: get a meeting link to share, start an instant meeting, or schedule a meeting in Google Calendar. The first two options involve starting a meeting right away, so choose the last option to schedule a meeting for later.

You will be provided with a form to fill out with all the meeting details. You'll notice it looks very similar to creating a Google Calendar entry, and it works basically the same way -- except, in this case, it also creates a Google Meet link that invitees can click when the scheduled time arrives.

Fill out the title of the meeting; check with attendees’ work schedules and then choose date, time, and duration; select whether this is a one-time or repeating event; add a description; add guests; and include any other information you want. Once you are finished, click "Save" -- Google automatically generates a special meeting link and phone number for your meeting, so you don't have to do anything there.

After you have saved the meeting, an entry will appear on your calendar. When the appointed time comes, click on the calendar entry and a window will pop up with a big blue "Join with Google Meet" button. Click on that button. Note: The meeting invite will also include a Google Meet phone number and pin you can call if an attendee prefers to dial into the meeting rather than join on their computer.

You will be taken to a waiting room of sorts where you can choose whether to allow your camera and your microphone. Once you've made that selection, click the "Join Now" button to the right to join the meeting. Or, click "Present" if you are the presenter and need to share your screen.

Now you're in the meeting. While in the meeting, you can turn your camera and microphone on and off, as well as present if the host gives you permission to do so. There is also a chat function, which is useful if you are having difficulties or just want to make a comment without interrupting the presenter. To leave the meeting, click the red phone icon at the bottom.

For those who just want to learn how to video conference, Google Meet is a great option, and it is about as simple as you can get in terms of setup. But if you want other video conferencing software alternatives to Google Meet, you’re in luck.
