Google Meet saw rapid development last year to accommodate the millions of people who made the transition (and in many cases are still there) working from home. The service has implemented many new features recently and now Google is making it easier than ever to create a call.
Previously, creating a Google Meet conference required creating a nickname (or allowing Google to generate one for you), so that would provide a link that you could share with others. Google is now accelerating this process with a tailored interface at meet.google.com. Clicking the ‘New meeting’ button now offers three options: create a meeting for later, start a call now, or schedule a meeting on Google Calendar.
Depending on how you use Google Meet most often, the updated interface can save at least a few clicks. The changes are now being implemented in G Suite / Google Workspace accounts and personal Gmail accounts.
