- hadlock 9mo agoI've been using gmail since the early beta days and was never aware of this functionality. But on closer inspection there appears to be a highly stylized (unrecognizable) camera icon there that takes me to, I guess the long lost cousin of Google Meet?? Why are these apps welded together? What a bizarre decision. I thought Meet went to The Graveyard along with Allo and Duo and Wave.
- suprfsat 9mo agoMeet was discontinued; its functionality was merged into Duo and the resulting app renamed to Meet.
- SaltyBackendGuy 9mo agoMeet still works on Pixel phones as a solution/parity for FaceTime. I wonder if it's bundled in the web build or they're the same build under the hood.
- afavour 9mo agoMy work uses GSuite so I’m using Meet every day. I find it mildly useful to have the functionality built into the Gmail app but at the same time I see zero loss in having it be a separate app.
- tshaddox 9mo agoThat's something that I would (very generously) expect to add 5 megabytes.
- summerlight 9mo agoYeah, meet and chat (where each has their own bloat) are now integrated into the mail app as well. This contributes a lot.
