Gmail users always wanted to have an in-app calling feature and Google has finally listened to them. You can now place calls via Google meet in the Gmail app.

According to reports, Google is trying to build Gmail as a central hub across the suite of apps that Google offers. With Gmail you can send & receive emails, chat with colleagues, create rooms, videoconferences and voice/video calls with the latest release. Currently, Google Meet on the Gmail app only provides option to start a join a meeting but with the new release you can make one-to-one call with your contacts just like Skype or Whatsapp.
