Use activities to present files

Google Meet is a communication app allowing individuals and teams to connect, collaborate, and engage in real-time. Use Google Meet to conduct video conferences, share screens, and integrate seamlessly with other Google services.

You can use activities to present Figma Design files, prototypes, or FigJam boards, and interact with them without leaving Google Meet.

• FigJam boards: Collaborate and access all the functionality of FigJam boards. For those with edit access, you can explore, create, and edit FigJam boards as you normally would.
• Figma Design files: Present Figma Design files and prototypes without using screen-sharing. Prototypes are view and comment-only, even for people who have edit access to the file. You can click Open in Figma to open the file and edit from the web or desktop app.

Use FigJam and Google meet on Google Hardware

You can launch FigJam both in and out of an active Google Meet call using Google hardware, including the Series One Board 65 and Desk 27 devices. When the Figma add-on is installed for your organization, your members will automatically be able to access the app from Board 65 or Desk 27 devices.
