Reviews for Google Meet (original)
I haven't had many problems with this app, when my teachers need me they put a link on classroom and im there. The video can sometimes lag behind like half a second to a full second but that might just be my mobile data. The quality of the videdo could be a little better but I don't have a problem with it, so I think it can be a useful app when needed.
The app is decent, just that. Teachers can present their information, but not their videos as videos sound terrible in meet. As well as that, a major problem with the app is that you cannot send a message when people join, leave, or start recording. Otherwise, this is a good app for presenting PowerPoints and others of the such.
I haven't used the app in my phone but in my PC it's really bad. Hangout was more reliable in my opinion. Also, if you have the feature to change the background why in the world you don't have the choice to do chroma key? (like Zoom does) Trying to change my background with my green screen results in even worse image quality than without green screen. That's absurd.
It's a very professional app with a nice and smooth interface. The video and audio quality is also excellent. But there are some lackings in the Presentation mode. The presented screen is very choppy (20-25 fps) to the viewers. Also my device audio is absent when I am presenting my screen. Only I can hear the audio of any video being played but my viewers can't hear any audio. It's just like watching an absolutely silent film. Please bring device audio sharing besides device screen sharing asap.
Before one app, called hangout, could do it all: text, images, audio and video. Moreover, you could call and be called. Now, three steps backwards: separate apps to install and manage, you have to plan in advance rather than call and be called when needed and you need a separate channel to share the meeting code, the worst invention of those stupid people at Zoom. Since Google is out of ideas, now we got that antifeature here too.
It's easy to use, and works. In order to catch up with Zoom, it needs to enable a grid view on the phone app (currently, as far as i was able to figure out, that only happens on the computer). Another feature it needs is allowing people to join automatically (with the meeting code).
While this is a great app, it used to be way better before the update recently. The captions are slow to update and usually are very behind, you cannot kick anyone from the meeting anymore. That is the biggest problem now. I was in my class and someone joined on an account and none of us could kick him, and even worse they started playing vulgar music and pornography on the screen while presenting. The microphone has a load of echo as well. However the app is great with video and voice. Thanks!
I'm giving 2 stars because the new app UI is just bad. Screen is smaller, cannot message while seeing the screen, cannot see who is presenting a screen. Also "joined/left" notification are shown very annoyingly. The previous version was way better. Honestly it just needed dark mode. It was more effective to use. Please change the UI.
Buttons Moved The button order is different than the online application. I tried unmuting myself and ended up hanging up by mistake. There should be consistency between the mobile and online versions. Also, viewing the chat is harder with the new update. It'd be nice to also have a feature that blocks the sound from the speaker from coming through on the mic to avoid echos/feedback.
Would be great if it didn't crash every 10 minutes. It may be my chromebook, because it's very cheap. (not old, cheap) but it's brand new, about 3 weeks old, and I have only downloaded a few pictures and apps, not enough to make it crash repeatedly because I have very low space. Please fix this. Zoom isn't secure at all, and I don't want to have to go back to it. Thank you.
