Google Meet is making it easier for everyone to position themselves in video calls without having to move the camera or mess around with the webcam’s frame adjustment settings. The that was launched for Google Workspace accounts in 2022 , centering users in the middle of the screen to correct weird camera angles. The toggle is enabled by default, but can be switched off by clicking the three-dot menu before you join a call, selecting “Apply visual effects,” and clicking “Appearance.
” It’s similar to Apple’s Center Stage feature, but Google’s version doesn’t track users as they move to keep them in frame — which can help reduce distractions in meetings. Google’s automatic framing happens only once before joining a call, but users can manually reposition themselves by hovering over their video tile and clicking “reframe.” Running virtual backgrounds is an exception, with the feature then continuously keeping the user centered to prevent the background itself from reframing.
