How To Make Eye Contact In A Google Meet Video Call!

The biggest problem we find with making video calls is the loss of eye contact that you get when you meet in person. Webcams are typically located at the top of your screen, breaking the line of sight. 

Using the Picture-in-Picture mode in Google Meet, you can trick yourself, and the participants of the video call into thinking you are looking directly at them, keeping that all-important eye contact.

What you need to do in Google Meet

Once you're in a Google Meet video call, you must turn on Picture-in-Picture mode. You can do this by:

  • Clicking the "Three Dot" icon on the taskbar running across the bottom of a Google Meet video call.

  • Select Open picture-in-picture mode.

  • The video call will pop out; you can drag the video call window directly below your webcam.

Once you have the video call window directly below your webcam, this will give the effect that you are looking down the webcam at the participants and keeping eye contact.
