Meet is getting a new feature that can be particularly helpful in large meetings. Meeting hosts or co-hosts can now pin up to three specific tiles for all the meeting participants. This will enable the participants to see the same people, presentations, or items highlighted on the screen, without having to do anything at their end. Earlier, while participants could pin up to three tiles, however, they would not be reflected on anyone else’s screen. All users will have the option to unpin the participants at their end.

Meets also debuted Studio Lighting on the web. This feature enables adding studio-quality lighting to the participant’s frame. There is an Auto option to add the effect automatically, and a Custom option that lets you make granular changes to the brightness, position and colour of the lighting. Studio sound was also added which uses AI to improve audio quality.
