Visual screenshots in Google Meet meeting notes will soon

Visual screenshots in Google Meet meeting notes will soon be generally available, pre-configure admin settings in advance

In the coming weeks, we’re starting the rollout of visual screenshots for the ‘Take notes for me’ feature in Google Meet. Visual screenshots automatically capture presented content (such as slides, diagrams, and charts) directly into the generated meeting notes document, ensuring critical visual context is preserved alongside spoken summaries and transcripts.

Ahead of the general availability rollout, admins can decide whether visual screenshots of presented content are allowed in meeting notes for their users and pre-configure their preferred setting in advance. Admin controls can be configured to either always allow screenshots of presented content (default) or only allow them when a meeting recording is enabled.

We’ll share another update on the Workspace Updates blog with more details when visual screenshots begin rolling out to end users.

Visual Context in Meeting Notes

While meeting transcripts accurately capture what is said during a call, they don’t currently include visual context—such as presented slides, financial charts, or architecture diagrams. Visual screenshots will soon be automatically embedded into the Google Doc created by “Take notes for me”.

Data Protections and Privacy Controls

Presenter Notifications: When a user begins presenting in a meeting where Take Notes for me is active, an on-screen notification will alert the presenter that Gemini may capture screenshots of the presentation to include in the meeting notes document.
In-Meeting End-User Control: Presenters and end users can manage or disable visual screenshot capture at any time directly from the Google Meet notes panel.
Enterprise Data Protections: Visual screenshots captured during meetings are covered by Google Workspace enterprise-grade data protections.

Getting started

Admins: Admin settings are available starting today. You can configure visual screenshot settings in the Admin console at the domain, Organizational Unit (OU), or group level. Navigate to Apps > Google Workspace > Google Meet to choose between allowing screenshots always or only when recording is enabled.
End users: There is no end user action required at this time. When the feature officially rolls out, presenters will receive a notification when presenting during a meeting with note-taking enabled and can manage setting preferences from the notes panel.
