Google later this year announced the launch of Meet on multiple platforms, including Zoom, in 2022. Both Zoom Rooms and Google Meet devices will be able to join a Google Meet meeting, either directly from the Zoom Room or Google Meet device’s calendar, or by entering. Meeting Code, the technology giant said in a blogpost.
On all ChromeOS-based Meet devices, zoom Interop will be available, and support for more items will come later. Google Meet Interop will be enabled in all zoom rooms on all platforms. Interop for registered devices can be enabled by administrators, allowing trusted devices to join cross-platform calls without knocking.
“In hybrid workplaces, organizations are struggling to connect their conference rooms with colleagues across different organizations due to platform interoperability challenges,” the company said.
“To help overcome this, we are working to give customers as much flexibility as possible to connect with people within and outside their networks,” says Google,
The first two video conferencing partners to offer Meet for Android-based devices will be Poly and Logitech.
Notably, customers who already have Android-based Poly or Logitech devices will be able to utilize their investment and switch to Meet by purchasing Meet licenses for these devices.
Meanwhile, Google is reportedly working on a new tool that will allow Chrome users to snooze unused tabs. This will help free up memory on your computer to use for other applications. Android Police reports that there has been a new performance page in the Settings menu in the latest Canary build of Chrome by a Reddit user. The build includes toggles for two new features – Memory Saver and Energy Saver Mode.
Memory saver mode will hibernate tabs that the user hasn’t touched in a while. We all know that opening multiple tabs in Chrome consumes a lot of memory, which slows down the computer. With the new Google Chrome feature, users will be able to snooze tabs that are not in use.
When a user revisits the snoozed tab, they will see a pop-up indicating how much RAM has been freed up for other tasks. Sharing a screenshot for the memory saver mode, the report suggests that the inactive tabs will be activated again when a user visits them again.
