Google Meet App APK Download for PC, Laptop, MAC, Andorid, IOS Phone, Windows & Features:
Google Meet is a video-communication service developed by Google. It is one of two apps that constitute the new version of Google Hangouts, the other being Google Chat. Google planned to begin retiring the classic version of Hangouts in October 2019.
Initially Google ran Meet as a commercial service; in April 2020 Google started rolling it to free users as well,causing speculation about whether the consumer version of Google Meet would accelerate the deprecation of Google Hangouts.
n response to the COVID-19 crisis in March 2020, Google began offering Meet’s advanced features that previously required an enterprise account to anyone using G Suite or G Suite for Education. The use of Meet grew by a factor of 30 between January and April of 2020, with 100 million users a day accessing Meet, compared to 200 million daily uses for Zoom as of the last week of April 2020.
Until May 2020, a G Suite account was required to initiate and host a Meet video conference, but with increased demand for video conferencing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Google rolled out free access to Meet also for holders of consumer accounts. Following the announcement, Google’s Director of Product Management recommended that consumers use Meet over Hangouts.
Free Meet calls can only have a single host and up to 100 participants, compared to the 250-caller limit for G Suite users and the 25-participant limit for Hangouts.Unlike business calls with Meet, consumer calls are not recorded and stored and the company states that consumer data from Meet will not be used for advertisement targeting.While call data is reportedly not being used for advertising purposes, based on an analysis of Meet’s privacy policy, Google reserves the right to collect data on call duration, who is participating, and participants’ IP addresses.
Users need a Google account to initiate calls and like G Suite users, anyone with a Google account is able to start a Meet call from within Gmail.Free meet calls have no time limit, but will be limited to 60 minutes starting in September 2020. For security reasons, hosts can deny entry and remove users during a call.As of April 2020, Google plans to roll out a noise cancelling audio filter and a low-light mode.
Google Meet uses proprietary protocols for video, audio and data transcoding. However, Google has partnered with the company Pexip to provide interoperability between Google Meet and SIP/H.323-based conferencing equipment and software.Since Meet runs in a browser and does not require an app or extension, it should present fewer security vulnerabilities than video conferencing services requiring a desktop app.
Google Meet App Key features:
• Host unlimited high-definition video meetings
• Meet safely – video meetings are encrypted in transit and proactive anti-abuse measures help keep your meetings safe
• Easy access – just share a link and invited guests can join with one click from a desktop web browser or the Google Meet mobile app
• Share your screen to present documents, slides and more
• Follow along with real-time captions powered by Google speech-to-text technology
How to Download Google Meet App:
- Go to the play store and search for Google Meet
- Tap on “Download” and the apk file will be downloaded on your Android smartphone. The minimum requirement for the app is Android 5.0 Lollipop & above.
- Once the apk file is downloaded, go to downloads then tap on it.

Earlier, Google Drive either used to stop the download or throw an error if the download size exceeded 2GB. Later, Google added the functionality where files were divided into 2GB zip folders automatically. However, that didn’t solve the issue of zip files giving trouble to Drive users. Many people still face the Google Drive zipping files forever problem.
Download Google Drive App To My Pc
If you also face the issue of Google Drive zip downloads stuck or zip files fail to download, then you are at the right place. Here we will tell you six ways to possibly fix the issue. And as a bonus, you will also get to know a few tips to improve the zip download process.
Let’s get started.
1. Restart Computer
I have a habit of either hibernating or putting my laptop on sleep, which causes problems at times. The problem is mostly related to browsers due to issues in temporary files. So, if Google Drive is zipping files forever on your PC, you should start by restarting your computer. I know, I know ... but if only common sense was that common.
2. Follow the Right Steps
The zip downloads fail for most users due to the unintuitive nature of the download steps. The initial steps are logical i.e. select the folder or multiple files that you want to download and then click on the Download button. Google Drive will then start zipping your files. Once it finishes it, here’s what changes.
You will receive a Leave site pop-up at the top. Normally, pop-ups make sense with a yes or no button. But here things are different.
The text says ‘Changes you made may not be saved’. You are offered two options — leave and cancel. A regular user would think that the download for the zipped files will be canceled by clicking on the Leave button. So they click on Cancel. But that’s wrong. Pressing the Cancel button will stop the downloads. As strange as it may sound, you have to click on Leave. Doing that will start the download process of the zipped files.
Didn't Get Any Pop-up?
In case you don’t receive any pop-up, follow the below steps to fix it on Chrome.
Step 1: Open the link chrome://settings/ to go to Chrome Settings.
Step 2: Click on Advanced to reveal more settings.
Step 3: Under Privacy and Security, click on Site Settings.
Step 3: Scroll down and click on Pop-ups and redirects.
Step 4: If the pop-ups are blocked, click on the Add button next to Allow. Add https://drive.google.com to the allowed pop-ups.
Step 5: Close Chrome. Then try downloading the files. Do remember to click on Leave instead of Cancel in the pop-up.
Tip: Sometimes, downloads are blocked on Chrome. Find out how to unblock them.Also on Guiding Tech

4. Try a Different Browser
If your current browser fails to download zip files, try it in a different browser.
5. Sign Into Correct Account
If you are signed into multiple Google accounts on your browser, sign out from all of them. Keep only one account signed in from where you want to download Google Drive files.
6. Reset Google Chrome Settings
Sometimes, the issue could be due to an extension or incorrect settings. So resetting Chrome will fix it. Even though your data is safe when you reset it, do read what happens when you reset Chrome.
