20 extensións de Google Meet Chrome que podes probar en 2021

O ano pasado houbo un aumento meteórico na demanda de servizos de videoconferencia e colaboración e un servizo que superou o resto sería Google Meet .

O servizo non só ofrece funcionalidades básicas como chamadas de vídeo e audio, visualización de cuadrícula e pantallas de uso compartido, a ferramenta de colaboración de Google tamén inclúe algunhas funcións especiais como a cancelación de ruído, o modo con pouca luz, unha mellor seguridade e a integración con outros servizos de Google como Gmail .

Non obstante, unha funcionalidade que moitos usuarios non entenden é que podes Google Meet no PC só na web. Por iso, podes axustar o servizo segundo o teu gusto usando ferramentas do teu navegador web, que para moitos usuarios será Google Chrome.

#7. Efectos visuais para Google Meet

Polo momento, a extensión só funcionará cunha pantalla verde física, pero o desarrollador revelou que se solucionará cunha actualización futura.

Transcrición e notas da reunión

#9. Coñece Transcrición

For desktop users, Google Meet is a web-only application, meaning that you must run it on a browser to get the job done. And while that may seem a little inconvenient to some, it also, undeniably, opens up new avenues. Google Chrome extensions are a blessing for Google Meet, and this particular extension — Google Meet Transcript — is one of the best we’ve ever seen.

Just as the name suggests, the Chrome extension transcribes your Google Meet sessions, in real-time and saves it to a Google Docs file. Your screenshots and chat messages are also recorded meticulously. To record chat messages, make sure the right-hand-side chat panel is left open.

After you’ve downloaded and installed it from the Google Chrome Web Store, you’ll need to run it and grant it permission to access Google Drive, which would ensure that a Google Doc file is automatically created when needed. Then, take a screenshot, talk, and chat — everything will be transcribed safely.

#10. Fireflies Meeting Recorder Transcribe, Search

Fireflies is an easy way for you to record your Google Meet meetings and transcribe them at a later stage. The tool adds a button on both Google Meet and Google Calendar allowing you to transcribe calls with a single button. This way, you can avoid dealing with bulky audio files that you need to listen to and transcribe on your own.

The free tool lets you record your meetings, create notes for the audio, mark important moments, and share them with your teammates. What’s more? You can use Fireflies not just with Google Meet but also on Zoom, Webex, Microsoft Teams, Skype, and other collaboration tools.

#11. Tactiq Pins for Google Meet

When a meeting session is on, you will be required to listen in on the conversation and give your input when the time comes. But the real problem starts when the meeting ends and you want to recapture all the points that you discussed. While you can record video sessions of your team, you might not want to sit through the entire recording to get a gist of all that was talked about.

This is where the Tactiq Pins for Google Meet extension for Chrome comes in. You can use this extension to save live transcriptions and read them in real-time. You can pin important conversations so that you can find them at a later time and also save transcripts in your clipboard, as TXT files, on Tactiq, or upload them to Google Drive.

#14. Meet Attendance

Google Meet lets you host up to 250 participants in a single call and with so many members on board, it might be difficult to discuss all the proceedings of the meeting and also check who all were actually present during the session. The Meet Attendance extension on Chrome does exactly that, offering a means to take attendance during a Meet session.

When enabled, the feature shows up next to the ‘People’ tab and from there, you can create a new sheet/spreadsheet. The extension will then add who’s entering the meeting and when alongside the meeting URL.

#15. Google Meet Attendance

If you run into a problem or two while using the above extension, you could take a quick look at Google Meet Attendance. The names are eerily similar, as is the working philosophy. You’d have to do very little to get the most out of this extension.

#16. Google Meet Push To Talk

Not all organizations or groups use the same way of communication. For instance, classrooms will only require audio input from a student when they want to ask a query. The Google Meet Push To Talk extension works in a similar fashion as that of a walkie talkie, where you would have to press the Space key on the keyboard to speak up, and during the rest of the time, your mic will remain muted.

The extension makes sure that participants do not need to click a bunch of buttons to mute and unmute themselves. You can also personalize which key you want to use as your hotkey to ‘push to talk’ during a meeting session.

#17. Google Meet Breakout Rooms

Breakout Rooms allow hosts of meetings to split the primary meeting group into multiple subgroups. Although Google Meet doesn’t natively come with such a feature like Zoom, you can still use the functionality by installing the Google Meet Breakout Rooms extension on Google Chrome.

The extension lets you move seamlessly between rooms and view them in tiled or tab format, add participants to different rooms, close rooms, mute all, or remove all participants. One added feature is being able to broadcast both audio and video to all breakout rooms at once which is handy for when hosts have to share the same message to an entire organization.

#18. Google Meet Call Timer

As it’s labeled, the Google Meet Call Timer adds a timer to your meeting screen so that you can check the remaining time that’s left for a meeting session to end. The timer when enabled shows up at the top right corner of the screen where the Participants tab, clock, and chat tabs reside.

You can set a specific time when a meeting starts and you can turn it off at any time. When a meeting has ended, you will be shown the total duration of the session.

#19. Dualless

Dualless is a Chrome extension that lets you split your browser windows into two and is meant to be used by those who want to have the functionality of multiple monitors but don’t actually have the setup. Each browser window is split into two and you will get an option to select which aspect ratio (3:7,4:6,5:5,6:4,7:3) you want to set to a window.

Besides splitting your browser windows, Dualless also offers the ability to merge those windows into a single one later.
