How to turn on data saver mode on Google Meet
Internet search giant Google, earlier this week, announced that it is rolling out a new feature to its video conferencing tool — Google Meet — that will make it possible for users to limit the data consumption of the app.
The feature has been enabled by Google for both Android and iOS users.
According to Google, when this feature is enabled, it not only limits the usage of data, but also less usage of the battery as well as lowered demand of mobile’s CPU.
“Google Meet automatically adjusts to your device, network and set-up to provide the best possible meeting experience. However, you may want to adjust the quality of your meeting to reduce impact on your mobile device,” said the company in a blogpost.

The feature will also be available to all Google Workspace customers, as well as G Suite Basic and Business customers.
