Rollout Update: setting the default camera framing option for Google Meet hardware devices

What’s changing 

We recently announced several updates related to framing options on Google Hardware devices. This included the ability for admins to configure the default camera framing option for their hardware devices. After pausing rollout to optimize performance, we are pleased to announce that this feature is now fully available.

Getting started

• Admins: You can configure default camera framing options for individual Google Meet hardware devices by going to Devices > Google Meet hardware > [Device Name] > Device Settings > Default camera framing. Visit the Help Center to learn more about setting default camera framing for meeting rooms. You can also set the default camera framing option for multiple devices at once. 
• End users: Visit the Help Center to learn more about using device-based framing and using the Meet the touchscreen to control audio and video.
