Google Meet does not require any special App to be installed on your computer or phone.  It uses your Internet Browser (Edge, Safari, Chrome, Firefox, etc).

You do not need to have a Google Account (e.g. Gmail) to join Google meetings, but you may have some additional functionality if you have logged in with a Google Account.

  1. Tap the Meeting Link sent to you by email.
  2. Follow the on-screen prompts to join
    • If prompted to allow “meet.google.com” to use your camera and microphone click “Allow“.
  3. You may then see a button “Ask to Join“
  4. Wait until the Meeting Host admits you
  5. You will then see a screen similar to this:

The significant controls are the buttons displayed at the bottom of the screen.

  1. Microphone. Click this to Mute and Unmute.  We suggest that you remain muted when not speaking
  2. Camera. Click this to switch your camera on or off.  We suggest that you leave your camera on during the meeting
  3. CC. Live Captions, optional.
  4. Reaction (Emojis), optional.
