Google Meet declares war on that sunny window behind you that’s making you underexposed
Google Meet declares war on that sunny window behind you that’s making you underexposed



Google Meet’s camera software is getting smarter.
On Monday, Google announced a neat little upgrade in Meet: The camera on the web will now automatically detect when a user appears underexposed, and will enhance the brightness to improve their visibility.
This typically happens when a bright window or a lamp is behind you, causing that “menacing silhouette in the dark” look that you probably don’t want during a company meeting.

The feature is being gradually rolled out right now and is available to all Google Workspace customers, G Suite Basic, and Business customers. End users can turn it on and off in Google Meet’s Settings.
Google has recently been adding a ton of small adjustments to Meet, including making the Hand Raise feature more visible, adding emoji reacts, and adding new filters and masks (but only for personal accounts).
