Google has integrated Google Meets inside the Gmail app for iOS and Android. During the global health crises, Google was left behind users as they preferred apps like Zoom for video calling. Moreover, several institutions and organizations also preferred Zoom over Google's platform due to its complexity. Now, Google is making it easier for users to join video calls directly from the Gmail app on both iOS and Android.

Gmail now integrates Google Meet. This means that you can join Google Meet video conferencing calls from Gmail when anyone emails you the link. Before today, Clicking on the video call link in email required you to have the Google Meet app installed and you could join the call via deep linking. Now, you don't even have to install the Meet app and join the call straight from the Gmail app.
