Google Meet adding support for 1:1 calls without links [1/2]
As Hangout deprecating, many of its feature has been killed by Google. And Google is kinda restoring the video call capability without "generating a link".

Currently, a new meet call will generate a random link and you are required to share it to the person you want to meet with. Soon, there will be support to open direct Google Meet calling. In Google Chat, you’ll get a “video” button to directly start a call.

It will be rolling out “soon” for one-to-one chats in Gmail & Chat Android app. It will possibly come to Workspace account in the near future. (9To5Google)

Google Meet will be getting ‘Companion Mode’ (Update) [2/2]
Google is preparing for something big for Google Meet, it is getting "Companion Mode" which is a second-screen experience to make hybrid meetings more equitable.

What it can do is that you can use one device for the audio or video source and another computer for viewing what is being presented on the screen, respond or create polls/Q&A, send/view chat messages and access Jamboard. You will be also able to share/mirror your screen from the second device.

Also live-translated captions is coming alongside with the release of the Companion Mode, it will support English to French, German, Spanish and Portuguese, more languages will be coming soon in the near future.

It will be available in September on the web version and coming soon to mobile. (9To5Google)

Spaces in Chat & Gmail rolling out
Google back in June announced that "Rooms" will be rebranded to "Spaces" with more features. For now, the new naming is starting to rolling out in more places.

In the new Material You revamp of the Gmail app, we have already seen the third tab in the bottom toolbar have been renamed. Gmail for iOS is also getting the changes. For the web version, likely it will be rolling out in the near future.

Nothing has been added/changed for now in the functionality, we could see that coming out in the next few months. Stay tuned for that. (9To5Google)
