- Google is testing a new feature in the Phone app that lets you seamlessly switch from a regular phone call to a Google Meet video call with just a tap.
- This feature is currently in beta testing and only showing up for a limited number of users on Pixel phones.
Google’s video conferencing platform, Google Meet, might be making a play to become a bigger part of our daily mobile communication. While it started primarily as a business-focused tool, it’s become a popular option for 1-on-1 video calls as well. Now, it appears Google is testing a new feature that could further increase its use — a way to easily switch from a regular phone call to a video call with just a tap.
iPhone users have long enjoyed easy video calling through Apple’s FaceTime feature built directly into the iPhone dialer. Now Android users could have a similar experience with this integration of video calling into the phone app.
