Improved Google Meet experience on the Nest Hub Max
Quick launch summary
Earlier this year, we launched the ability to use Google Meet on Nest Hub Max in beta. Now, we’re making several updates to improve the experience of using Meet on this smart display. Specifically we’re adding:
- An in-call clock to keep meetings on schedule. Just tap on the screen to see it.
- Nameplates on user tiles to help you see who is in a meeting.
- Tap-to-pin specific users, so you can make an individual video feed larger if needed. Double tap on a feed to pin or unpin.
- 2x2 grid view, so you can see up to 4 meeting participants at once, including your own video.
- An overflow menu, so you can see call attendees not displayed in the grid view.
