Google is enhancing one of Meet's features, allowing users to engage in video chats with friends and family throughout the day. The company has announced that Meet will continue to offer free, unrestricted calls for Gmail users until March 31, 2021.

The feature enables users to make video calls with others for up to 24 hours. In a blog post, a Google representative mentioned that unlimited time for video calls in the video conferencing service was first introduced in April when Meet was available for free to everyone.

These include support for up to 250 participants in a call, live streaming to a maximum of 100,000 viewers, the ability to record calls, and save them on Google Drive.
