Google Meet sign-in shows the number to tap on your phone
To join Google Meet, your AI employee signs in with your Google account, and Google often asks you to confirm on your phone. Until now you could not see the number Google asked you to tap, so the sign-in often failed. Now the sign-in step shows it.
What you get
- When Google asks you to tap a number on your phone or tablet, the sign-in step now shows that number and the device Google is asking you on.
- If you tap No or tap a different number, you are asked to start the sign-in again, instead of seeing an unknown verification step.
- After you approve on your phone, the sign-in waits a few seconds for Google and checks that you are signed in, so a sign-in you approved no longer stops with an error. The number and the device stay on screen while it checks.
- If your login is your email address, connecting the Google account with that same address is now enough: the Meetings page no longer wrongly says Cannot join ยท Google needs attention, your AI employee can join Google Meet, and the meeting notes are emailed to that address.
- With such a login, a Google account with another address is not accepted for meetings, email or documents, so connect the one that matches your login.
