Add a video conference to or remove a video conference from your calendar event

You can add a video conference to or remove a video conference from your events in Google Calendar. You can use Google Meet or another video conferencing add-on.

Change video conference options on an event

Important: When you add Google Meet to a Google Calendar event, you get a unique meeting code. Until it expires, the meeting code is permanently linked to the original Calendar event. The guest list for the original event controls who can join your meeting and who has access to meeting records, like recordings and chat history. Learn about meeting codes in Google Calendar events.

1. On your Android phone or tablet, open Google Calendar.
2. Create an event or open an existing event that you have edit access to.
   • To add a new video conference, tap Add video conferencing.
   • To remove an existing video conference, tap Remove .
3. After you've finished creating or editing the event, tap Save.

Troubleshooting

I want to use a different conferencing solution

Important: If you have a work or school account, your administrator controls the add-ons that you can use or install in Calendar.

You can install a video conferencing add-on to use with Calendar. After installation, you can manually add video conferencing to your events. Learn how to find and install an add-on for Calendar.

I want to automatically add a Google Meet video conference to my event

1. On your computer, open Google Calendar.
2. At the top right, click Settings Settings.
3. On the left, click Event settings.
4. Turn on Automatically add Google Meet video conferences to events that I create.

I want to avoid multiple conferences on single events

• An event can have only one conference. You can use Google Meet or another video conferencing add-on.
• To use another video conference add-on, find and install the add-on from the Marketplace.
• When you add a conference to your event, select the add-on in the conferencing field drop-down.
• If you insert conference details directly into the location field or event description or if you use a browser extension, it may result in multiple conferences being attached to a single event.
