Google Meet now allows pausing video streams for individual tiles

Google Meet is rolling out a new feature that lets you pause streaming video for individual tiles so you can focus on the speaker or presenter who’s talking frequently.

To turn off individual sources, tap the three-dot menu next to the person’s name in the web sidebar and click Don’t See. On mobile, there’s a new “audio only” mode that disables all streams except the presenter stream. Hopefully, Google will bring this feature to the desktop as well.

The ‘audio only’ mode is certainly useful for saving data if you’re on the go.

According to Google, Meet won’t notify others when you turn off the video stream. Also, the meeting experience will not change.

The company says it has already started rolling out this feature and will have it available across all locations in the coming weeks. Luckily, admins can’t disable this feature for individuals, so it’s always available to users.
