So you have plenty of options for connecting with others this holiday season. Google, meanwhile, has rolled out a handy Meet feature that allows you to jump straight into your meetings from Gmail, both in-browser and on your phone.Īlso of note, the web version of WhatsApp is reportedly adding voice and video calls in a future update. The Thumbnail view can be used in Zoom Rooms with multiple screens, and the view can be configured to display the film strip above or below. Here are the release notes: New and enhanced features General features Support for Apple Silicon processors macOS Zoom desktop client will better support computers with ARM CPUs. Meetings assistants are displayed as participants in meetings they join. The biggest feature is the support for Apple Silicon Processors(M1). For example, a series of Microsoft Teams updates is adding custom layouts, breakout rooms, and 'Together mode,' which takes everyone in the call to special screens designed to emulate real-world meeting places like auditoriums and coffee shops. Assistants can change the name displayed in the participants menu when joining. These new updates, along with the new Silicon-first version of the app, should work in Zoom's favor, considering all the other video chat competitors out there. This adds the ability to virtually raise your hand during a conversation so as to not interrupt the speaker, as well as new reactions, better cloud contact integration and security integrations, and SMS/MMS support. For everyone running Zoom, there's a new update to check out regardless of which version you have installed.
