The first Google Meet desktop app. No more tabs, just a standalone desktop app with over 30 new features that make Google Meet a little more like Zoom.
Thanks for posting @robjama, and hey Product Hunt! ๐๐ป
Just 8 months ago we launched our Chrome Extension for Google Meet, and have since grown to over 200,000 users who are using it to make their work-from-home lives a little easier.
Now weโre launching the first standalone Google Meet desktop app, moving us closer to our goal of making Google Meet more like Zoom!
The app itself is totally free, and with Meet Pro you can unlock over 30 features that take Google Meet to the next level. Here are some highlights:
๐ฃ Push-to-talk
๐ผ Picture-in-picture
๐ฃ Speaker highlights
๐จ Custom background color
๐ Dark mode
โจ Transparent bottom bar
๐ Mute all participants
๐จFor Product Hunt folks weโre offering 20% off, forever, on any of our Meet Pro plans using the discount code MeetDesktopPH ๐จ
If youโre spending more time using Google Meet while working from home, weโd love for you to try out the app and let us know what you think!
Standalone app is great as it keeps me from opening yet another meet tab when I can't quickly find already opened one. "Present" mode works even better in standalone app. Great work!
I've been using this for the last couple of weeks. It's worth it just for the PiP mode but all the other features make Google Meet much more effective.
I love love love this. Have been using the desktop app for a couple of weeks now and it has been a game changer for me. I don't have to hunt down the Google Meet tab in my hundreds of tabs, nor create a new tab when I can't find it, anymore. Plus all the additional features are super handy.
This is really good. I wish my company would use meet instead of teams. I would have bought the pro version then because this would be invaluable at that time.
