What you need to know

• Google Meet has swapped some of its in-app controls in an attempt to "organize features more intuitively."
• Emoji reactions will now be visible in the bottom bar, while the hand raise option takes a back seat in the three-dot menu.
• These changes will reflect on both Android and iOS devices.
