Google is expanding the range of Google Meet facilities, as it now lets you switch calls between Galaxy Phones and Galaxy Books.
Google offers a free video-conferencing service named Google Meet, available on the Web, phones, and tablets for both Android and iOS, that allows you to connect with friends, family, and colleagues. Now Google has announced that users can switch between devices during a Google Meet call starting today.
Now if you want to switch to a Google Meet call, you can. This device switching can happen between a smartphone and a computer through a web browser; for instance, if you are on the go and receive a Google Meet call, you can accept it, and after reaching the destination, you can head over to your PC or laptop, open the Google Meet webpage in a web browser, and switch the ongoing video call to that device.
While opening the Google Meet website on a web browser, a “Switch Here” button is housed there, and tapping that button seamlessly transfers the video call from the smartphone to the web browser without much effort. Probably, it is quite seamless so that the ongoing conversation would not get cut off during the switching process.
Google has already begun rolling out this feature, which will soon be available for Google Workspace accounts and users with personal Google accounts. Galaxy smartphones and tablet users are now able to transfer their ongoing Google Meet calls and meetings to a Galaxy Book or Galaxy Chromebook laptop. Other options include joining the video call on both devices and using the companion mode. This will add an extra novelty to Google’s ecosystem, taking it to a higher level regarding video calling than Apple’s.

The version reveals that this is a straightforward on/off toggle for animation in Google Message settings, whereas something more advanced would permit you to enable or disable the expressive feature. Although the brand has not yet rolled out the feature widely,.
