Does Google Meet give you a list of attendees?

• Is everyone you expect present and accounted for?  
• If you are expecting participants outside your domain or organization, have you approved the requests to join?  
• Familiarize yourself with the icons in the participant window. You can:  
  • PIN a participant  
  • MUTE a participant  
  • REMOVE a participant   

Google Meet automatically switches the layout in a video meeting to display the most active content and participants. If you join a meeting on a computer, you can switch to a different layout if you want. You can Change Your View. In the lower-right corner of the Meet screen, click More > Change Layout and select the option that best serves the meeting needs.

Auto – Allows Meet to choose the layout for you. 

Tiled – Shows up to 16 people [NEW] when there is no presentation.

• Move your mouse to see participant names. 
• If a new person joins after the meeting starts, they are added to the bottom of the screen. 
• Presentations are shown in a large tile, with the most active participants to the side.  

Spotlight – The presentation, active speaker, or pinned feed fills the window.  

Sidebar – You see the active speaker or presentation with additional participants on the side.

New Feature

Tiled layout for larger calls: The expanded tiled layout now lets web users simultaneously see up to 16 participants at once [previously, tiled layouts only enabled you to see four people at a time]. More updates are coming for larger meetings, better presentation layouts, and support across more devices.

Coming Soon: Google Meet updates will soon include…

Low-light mode: Meet can now use AI to automatically adjust your video to make you more visible to other participants in sub-optimal lighting conditions. This feature is currently rolling out to mobile users, and will be available to web users in the future.
