In a bid to provide a more immersive experience to Meet users, Google Meet has introduced new 360-degree video backgrounds. The video backgrounds are available for both iOS and Android users. However, the feature is still being rolled out and therefore it might take a while before all of you are able to use it.

"Meet users on mobile can use several new 360-degree video backgrounds. These backgrounds - which include a beach and a temple - use your device's gyroscope to create a dynamic experience that moves with you," Google said in a Workspace Updates blog post.

"Available on Android and iOS devices for all Google Workspace users and users with personal Google Accounts," it added.
