If you’re one of the millions of people who became a Google Meet video chat devotee during lockdown, good news: You can now access Meet directly from the Gmail app on Android and iOS, making it easier to join video calls from your phone.

In April, Google made Meet and its premium features, such as unlimited call time and screen sharing, free to consumers through Sept. 30. The move put it in more direct competition with Zoom, which saw a massive surge in users when the pandemic hit, but also experienced a number of security issues, including uninvited guests “Zoombombing” meetings.

Here’s how to use Google Meet on your phone when the rollout hits your device.
