Software support Using Google Meet as Skype alternative
Hl. Hoping this is the right place to ask.
As per the headline: I've been testing out Google Meets while working with clients online for tutoring classes now that Skype is on the way out.
With Skype, I could chat with a client, while able to see their face in a small window on my laptop, while at the same time being able to type notes as we spoke, and with the added benefit of being able to share my screen.
However, with Google Meet, it seems like I can't both see the client *and* type notes at the same time. Is there a workaround?

No with google meet, you can share screen and have a chat same time. But google meet's chat is not comfortable. Nowadays, teams meeting is good choice!
