    Google Meet will remain visible when you move tabs

    If you're using Chrome desktop, Google Meet will automatically enable picture-in-picture mode when you end the call using the Tab key.

    If you use Chrome on your PC, Google is making it easier to keep track of Google Meet calls that tend to get buried in tabs. According to a blog post, the company is currently rolling out a feature that will automatically open Google Meet calls in picture-in-picture mode when you switch tabs in Chrome. As Google shows in this GIF, when you tap outside of a Google Meet call, a new Meet window will appear somewhere else on your screen, allowing you to keep track of who's talking. This is handy if you're sure you're viewing a document someone's shared, but not their own thread feed.

    The automatic picture-in-picture feature isn't limited to paid accounts; Google says it's available to "all Google Workspace customers, individual Workspace subscribers, and users with personal Google accounts." You can also manually enable picture-in-picture during a call if you need to.
