Preliminary information

Before explaining how to put your profile picture on Meet, I must provide you with some useful preliminary information regarding the correct completion of this operation.

You must, in fact, know that Meet is a free video-conferencing service from Google and, therefore, to be used, it is necessary to have an account of the well-known company of Mountain View.

Given these premises, it is also necessary to specify that, therefore, the profile photo of Google Meet is none other than that of your Google account, therefore changing the profile photo on Meet also means changing it in the other services offered by the Mountain View giant, such as Gmail, YouTube and so on. Is everything clear so far? Well, then let’s proceed.

How do you put your profile picture on Meet

Having made the necessary premises, it’s time to get to the heart of this tutorial and see how to change your profile photo on Meet. You can proceed both from smartphone and tablet, using the Meet app for Android (the iPhone / iPad app does not allow you to do this, but you can proceed from a browser), and from a PC, using the official Google Meet website. Find everything explained below.

As anticipated, the Google Meet app for iPhone and iPad does not have a quick link to setting up your Google account and, therefore, it is necessary to intervene from the browser, for example Safari: connected, therefore, to the management site of your Google account and, after logging in, press on the Personal Information tab.

Now, in the Photo section, press the camera-shaped icon to upload a photo from your device’s Gallery ( Upload Photo> Select a photo from your computer> Photo Library ) or to use a previously uploaded photo on Google Photos ( Your Photos ).

After selecting the photo you are interested in, press the Set as profile photo button to confirm the operation. You didn’t think it would be that easy, did you?

You can also put your profile picture on Meet from your PC, through the official Meet website, which, being a Google service, allows you to quickly access the setting of your account for editing your profile photo.

In this case, in fact, after logging into your Google account through the official Google Meet website, press on your current profile photo located in the upper right corner and, in the menu that is shown to you, click on the camera icon.

Once this is done, in the picture that is shown to you, choose whether to upload a photo by selecting it from your computer ( Select a photo from your computer ) or whether to use an image that you previously uploaded to Google Photos ( Your photos ).
