What’s changing 
We’re introducing a new, simplified mobile experience that will make taking calls on-the-go easier and less distracting. When you join Google Meet from your mobile device, we’ll automatically detect whether you’re in-motion and prompt you to use On-the-Go mode. 

Your meeting experience will be streamlined to surface the most important features to keep you focused and save you bandwidth: 

  • A simplified user interface with access to the most critical features such as mute & unmute, hand raise, and audio device selection. 
  • Only key information is displayed, such as the active speaker and the number of people on the call. 
  • Your video is automatically turned off. 
  • You have the option to view presented content. 
Take Google Meet on-the-go with ease

Why it’s important 
As people are increasingly on the go, it’s becoming more common to join meetings while walking, in a car, or on public transportation. That’s why we’re introducing the On-the-Go meeting experience, which will make it easier for you to focus on the critical meeting details, cut down on external distractions, and save bandwidth with an audio-only experience.
