Google has declared open war against its videoconferencing rivals !!

Gmail for Android and iOS will soon get a dedicated Google Meet tab


It’s no mystery that Google has been pushing Meet more and more in recent months. Due to the rise in demand for video calling apps, Google has rebranded the service and made it available to non-G Suite users. The company is now bringing Google Meet to its own tab in the Gmail app for Android and iOS.




In a move that will surely annoy some people, the Gmail app will get a new tab at the bottom of the screen for “Meet.” The tab shows a list of upcoming meetings and it has shortcuts to quickly start a meeting or join a meeting with a code. In addition, tapping on a link to a Google Meet meeting in Gmail will bring up a new preview screen with some information about the call before joining. This is where you can choose to use video/audio or to share your screen.


Of course, not everyone uses Google Meet, and having a large tab for it at the bottom of Gmail could be pretty annoying. Thankfully, Google realizes this and will allow people to hide the tab. To do this you can go to the Gmail settings, tap on your account, scroll down the screen, and uncheck “Meet.”



Google Meet is a nice video conferencing option, but in true Google fashion, things are getting a bit muddy with its video calling strategy. Google Duo recently just added the ability to do group video calls on the web with up to 32 people. Meet was originally for G Suite users only, but now that it’s open to everyone we have to wonder how Duo and Meet fit together.

Top 6 reasons to use Google Meet | TechGlass

Skip the Zoom drama and Meet a better way to video chat. Living alone, the only way I see my friends and family right now is video chatting apps, and there certainly are plenty to choose from these days. Zoom has been the in-vogue video app of the last several weeks, but since that Google Meet is free for everyone this summer, you should absolutely move your chats over to Meet instead. While Google Meet was built for enterprise as a way to host weekly staff meetings and host company-wide briefings, it has several advantages for the everyday chat with your parents or that weekly coffee gossip your mom has with her friends. The only reason not to give Google Meet a shot right now is actually that many of us actually can't create video meetings yet. Google said in its announcement that the ability for non-G Suite users to use Google Meet for more than joining someone else's meeting is going to be gradually rolling out over the next few weeks. ================================ Check out our other videos: Zoom Video Conferencing : Should you Zoom In or Zoom Out : https://youtu.be/nVPrl8NgDoY Google Smart Debit Card : https://youtu.be/HjTEhC06dYQ DIY Surgical Mask under 2 minutes : https://youtu.be/tHTW1dL_Twk iPhone SE launch : https://youtu.be/b8ZBNbymsDk YouTube Short - TikTok alternative : https://youtu.be/uxxvUpVVas8 OnePlus8 Colors : https://youtu.be/P8RhIRwOsFg How to book OLA and Uber directly from Google Maps : https://youtu.be/gseqGb59Kvo

Zoom Video Conferencing : Should you Zoom In or Zoom Out | TechGlass

Find out if you should go for Zoom meetings or choose other alternative. Seemingly everyone knows about Zoom now: parents, co-workers, friends, grandparents, and neighbors. The videoconferencing software company that went public last year is having a moment during the pandemic. People have flocked to the service to keep up with friends, build digital clubs, and even host weddings. However, in this time of immense growth, researchers and journalists have scrutinized the app and found multiple security and privacy risks. People are realizing the free app might actually come with the cost of giving up their personal data. The app’s main selling point, at least to the broader consumer world, is that it offers free, 40-minute conference calls with up to 100 attendees. It’s easy to use — people don’t need a login to access a meeting — and the interface is relatively intuitive. However, those same features put people at risk.

iPhone SE by Apple, cheapest iPhone ever | TechGlass

Apple's entry-level iPhone has been one of the worst-kept secrets in tech, with rumors swirling for months about an iPhone SE 2 or iPhone 9. It turns out, both names were wrong. On Wednesday, Apple unveiled a new iPhone SE with a 4.7-inch display as a follow-up to the original iPhone SE, released four years ago. The new iPhone SE is essentially an iPhone 11 stuffed into the revamped body of an iPhone 8. Like the original SE, the new phone will start at $399 -- $50 cheaper than the discontinued iPhone 8, which, until this week, was the least expensive iPhone you could buy new.
