Google Meet
As CEO of a medium sized firm, I am normally a participant, not the host or a presenter, on video conference calls. For my purposes, I find Google Meet to be the most reliable and simplest app in its class, given it’s simple and seamless Voice and video service. Reception from my iPhone is normally excellent, vs other apps which seem to require more bandwidth. Operation is simple, as there is no need to enter a participant ID as I am automatically connected assuming the meeting has been set up by the organizer through a calendar e-vite.
If a participant doesn’t have the app, it downloads within seconds, vs Microsoft Teams or Zoom, which are more complicated, require sign in codes, more bandwidth, have less reliable reception, require longer downloads and are more complicated to operate for participants unfamiliar with the app. I highly recommend Google Meet as it poses none of the above challenges. I find it to be the simplest to access and operate, and most dependable virtual meeting app in it’s class.

Credit counseling
To whom it may concern,
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to work with one of your outstanding employees. My Journey has been very rewarding. Not only did I have the chance to fix my damaged credit but my mental and general health has been repaired as well. The key to my success was working side by side with Annmarie. Annemarie, it was a pleasure to have worked with you and I am so grateful. Please Continue to be the best at what you do. When ever I have doubts I think to myself what would Annmarie do, than i’d smile and move forward.
Thanks to Annmarie and The Journey, p.s don’t forget to give Annmarie a substantial raise$.
Eternally grateful Bonita Paschal.Show lessbpaschal100
New update killed the app apparently
I “was” using this app for ptsd trauma therapy but after the update I get a message complaining that I need to turn on java? This is an app, isn’t java automatically enabled in an app?
I’m so glad that I kept my old phone because I didn’t update it and it still allows my therapist and I to continue to do therapy.
Just to be honest, I’m about so sick of technology wanting more and more personal data that I wish the internet would just go the heck away and never recover.
I’m assuming that is what the update was all about. I fought for your rights to a free country with everything that that entitles natural born citizens to - and now, the very app that I was using, without ANY problems at all, to recover from the scars of war, is now suddenly greedily wanting more and more information and refusing to work at all unless I give it access to even more personal information.
Sometimes I wonder why I enlisted when I see the state the country is in and all this greed and invasion of privacy.
Thanks. I guess, hopefully, that my therapy can continue with the use of a different app. If not, I’m screwed. Thanks Google.Show lessDghhjddhghj

HOPE 4 Seniors
For all those seniors who have technology anxiety, I use Gmail and was able to figure out how to download the Google app in response to a meeting I had agreed to. This allows us to have a support system for each other with eyes and ears when we want to visit with loved ones. It won’t replace the Zoom & Cisco WebEx platforms because the screen sharing is necessary for doing real work with real ADA-compliant documents. I don’t yet know how many can be on at once. I won’t be giving up my Zoom with the breakout rooms because that allows me to dynamically facilitate the “Everyone Counts Game Show” with 500 people any hour I have a trained crew…and to facilitate extended hybrid events so people are actually engaged instead of voyeurs.Show lessSister Sue Grandmother Weaver

Terrific automated speech recognition & closed captioning
I have really loved using Google Meet for video calls, in large part because I benefit greatly from its closed captioning. I used to use Skype, which also has ASR, but Skype’s captioning hadn’t been as accurate or well-punctuated, and it would also cover up the face of the person speaking. Google had designed the display of captioning much better.
I can also use Google Meet on a variety of devices, including my iPad. That’s not the same for Zoom, which still doesn’t make its ASR fully visible on devices other than computers.
One drawback: I wish that Google Meet had a much better way of notifying people by sound that a person has set up a Google Meet for them. Skype has Google Meet beat in this regard.
I’m not sure that Google Meet will continue to be available for individual users, unfortunately. I sure hope that it will.Show lessCloudyJudge
Best app to call overseas
I rarely write reviews but i got to for this one. GoogleMeet is the best app for video or audio calling ever. It’s better than WhatsApp, duo, tango, or any other calling app ever. I call my family overseas with ease. No problems connecting even when the speed is lower than 8mb. Honestly, I wanna thank Google for making connecting with families easier by developing this app. I recommend it to everyone, especially those who are away from their families. Five Stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Show lessZea145
Thanks for meet
I use meet to teach students in public school. I am teaching eight graders algebra. They come to me at 6:30 A.M. ,one hour before they leave for school. They come to me because they want to really learn math , telling me that they are not content with the pace of learning in their classes at school. It takes dedication to sacrifice sleep but they do it. I am thankful for the platform of google meet which allows me to do it. I also use meet to teach my grandson advanced placement chemistry, who lives 160 miles away, for the same reason mentioned above. Thank you for making it all possible.Show lesskl7312
An issue.
Hello! I have used google meet for around a year or two now, and recently I have noticed a huge issue. I use this app using my iPad, and whenever I try to join a meeting, sometimes it just immediately kicks me out of the call. Other times, it lets me in for a few seconds / minutes, then I get removed shortly after. Sometimes, I could call for a while using this app, then mid - conversation I just get removed. This issue is repetitive and doesn’t seem to happen with any other people I know who use the app. I’m beginning to question if maybe it’s just my device or if Google Meet is just a certain way. Other than that, the app is great and easy to use, just the issue is really bothering me lately.Show lessPeachybagel
