San Francisco. Tech giant Google has announced that it is rolling out a new Companion Mode check-in feature in video communication service ‘Meet’. One of the challenges of joining virtual meetings from a conference room is that people in the room are identified by the name of the conference room rather than as individuals, the tech giant said in a Workspace Updates blogpost on Thursday.
However, with the new feature, if someone joins a meeting from a conference room, they can use Companion Mode on their personal device to check in to that specific room.
Room check-in helps ensure that everyone in the meeting can see their name and is aware of their presence.
Room check-in will be available by default, but admins can turn off this feature for specific Meet hardware devices or specific users.
Meanwhile, earlier this month, the tech giant is introducing a new viewer mode in the video communication service, which allows users to select Everyone is a viewer while creating their calendar invites.
