Google Meet is giving 24 hours of free video calls to personal Gmail account users till June 30, 2021. Earlier, Google was going to limit the video call limit to 60 minutes and the deadline was to end on March 31, 2021. This deadline was set when Google noticed that 60 minutes video call restrictions were to end in September 2020.

Google is constantly adding new features to Meet since its launch in India last year. Features like noise cancellation, the ability to add up to 250 participants, background blur, et cetera are included in the app. The company also came up with many developments and new features for students and teachers. The teachers have the ability to mute all students while in a meeting, end the meeting for all, et cetera. The host can share the link with the individuals they want as participants in their meeting to avoid unwanted traffic.
