Live captions allow deaf and hard of hearing users, users with different primary languages, and users in noisy environments to participate more fully in meetings. During a Meet call, each video call participant will be able to select the meeting’s spoken language when enabling captions.
Previously captions were only available in English now captions have been expanded to French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish (Spain and Latin America) speakers. Google has also made the captions settings “sticky,” which means you can turn them on or off during a meeting and your preferences will be saved, along with the chosen language, for future meetings.
