Picture-in-Picture (PiP) lets you keep a small floating window of your meeting on top of other applications. This way, you can stay engaged while working on something else. With PiP, you can:

  • Keep the meeting visible while switching tabs or applications
  • Follow participant video while taking notes or checking documents
  • Access key in-meeting controls (mute, camera, chat, etc.)
  • See notifications like chat messages or join requests


PiP is only available on Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge and the Desktop App*

  1. Join or start a meeting.
  2. Click or tap the layout button in the top right.
  3. Select Open Picture-in-Picture.
  4. A small version of your meeting window appears in the corner of your screen.

What You Can Do in Picture-in-Picture

While in PiP mode, you can still:

  • Turn your microphone or camera on or off
