After the boom of video conferencing due to the Coronavirus pandemic, The Mountain View-based software giant integrated its video calling service, Google Meet with Gmail on the web as well in the iOS and Android apps. However, if you’re not a Google Meet user, then the dedicated tabs for the service on the web and in the apps become useless. So, here’s how to disable it on every platform.
Now, the “Meet” tab on the Gmail app is much more prominent as it sits at the bottom with a dedicated section. However, if you’re a Zoom-er instead of a “Meet” user, then this tab is essentially a waste of space for the apps. So, here is how to disable it on iOS and Android apps.
- Toggle the switch to turn it off and boom! You’re done.
