Tap ion Meeting code. Now write here the ID of the meeting. Tap on Join's meeting. Please note, if you have multiple Google accounts, you can also switch to another account here.

Also, you can turn off the microphone or turnoff the camera if you want before you join.

We are in the meeting now. At the meeting, we have people tab, chat tap, and info tab. We have the same options as you normally use on join a meeting.

On the people tab, we will see the list of participants. On the chat, we will be able to talk with the participants with text. On the info tab, we will find the info about the meeting and also the possibility to share this with somebody else. Let's go back to the people tab. If you tap on somebody's picture, you will pin that person.. and you will see it live. You can also choose yourself to know how you look. Also, if you go with the mouse over the top zone, you will see the microphone and camera button.

We will have here also the leave button. On the top, we have the audio option, and also the caption option. You can turn the caption on so you see what people say….If you can not hear the meeting.

When you get into the meeting, you will get the option to share the meeting. You can share this link with others or simply share this ID. The id of the conference is the last part of the link. Let's tap on Share. You will be able to share this link on the apps of your phone. So it will be easy to share it on any social media or any app like WhatsApp. Let's test it on messages app. Let's go back to the app. We are in the meeting now.

Also, you have here an arrow that will allow you to do some stuff like: turn off audio, which does not work now but probably will do so in the future, and also remove that person from the meeting. This is quite useful. Now, if you wish to leave the meeting, just tap on this button.

how to share screen on Google Meet for Android?

You have two ways to share the screen. On the main page of Google meet, on some of the meetings we already have joined, we have the option to Present. This option is the actual screen sharing. Please note that your screen will be seen, but you will not be able to talk, so probably you will need two devices: 1 to speak and 1 to screen share. You can do this easily if you also have a tablet. The other way is when you are in a meeting. Now let's join a meeting. Tap on the screen. You will see the top menu. Tap on the three dots from the top. On this menu, tap the present screen. You will get a notice that people will see all that you do on the screen. Tap on start presenting. Tap here start now. If you do this for the first time, you might get into this option: Display over other apps. Switch on this option so you can share the screen. Now go back to the app. Let's see how the screen share works on other people. I have connected another device to this meeting as well. You see, here screen is sharing.

What I have noticed is that the screen sharing works very well. You see, almost in real-time, the actions that are done in the app. If you wish to stop the screen, go back to the app. You have there the option Stop Presenting. After we have tapped this, then the screen sharing will be turned off, and the person will not see your screen anymore. If this was useful, please like share.

Also, if you have any questions, please ask them in the comments area below.

Thank You….
