With Google Meet, you can host or join large video meetings with up to 100 participants on your Google Nest Hub Max and Assistant-enabled smart displays. Displays without cameras can receive video, but can't send video.

Important: Video meetings are not available on Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub, Lenovo Smart Display 7 or smart clock displays.

Each person that you invite can request to join the meeting.

When you schedule a meeting in advance, each participant will receive an email with the event information and a link to join the video meeting. Learn more about creating events in Calendar.
