Improving accessibility of the “connect device” feature on Google Meet hardware devices

What’s changing 

We’re updating the home screen on Series One Desk 27 and Board 65 devices to feature a “Connect device” button as a quick action. 

One of the key values of the Desk 27 and Board 65 devices is the ability to use it as a primary monitor by connecting it to your laptop — by surfacing the “Connect device” button, you can take advantage of this capability faster. Further, this improves the discoverability of the feature, which was only accessible via a physical button on the back of the Desk 27 and Board 65. 

Getting started
