JioMeet additional features: Video conferencing app JioMeet, which is Reliance Industries’ competitor for Zoom and Google Meet, on Tuesday, secured the app with additional features. PTI reported that the features have been updated in a bid to prevent attacks like the ones that happened on Zoom, where hackers had posted obscene images on the screens. JioMeet, which already provides free encrypted and password-protected video conferences lasting up to 24 hours, has added a new safety feature that allows the host of the conference to stop guests from joining the meeting without signing in and disclosing their identity.
The move comes shortly after some hackers posted obscene pictures on video-conferencing app Zoom. The new features have been rolled out for Android and will be made available for iOS users soon.
As noted by PTI, JioMeet has brought in personal meeting rooms where users can set passwords for frequent meetings, sessions, classes, etc.
For enterprise users, JioMeet has brought in single-use sign-on which will allow the users to use their existing user-ID and password every time they sign in. Enterprise users will also have the option to search and conference with other teammates during an ongoing conference.
Enterprise users will be able to integrate with enterprise customers for collaborations which can work around multiple fixed locations like houses, offices, etc.
It has only been a week since JioMeet went live and within that small time frame, the app has revealed six features and enhancements which included new functionalities for the customers. The report further said that the new features are a measure to prevent hackers from entering the conference. The update with these features is already available on Google Play Store for Android users and iOS users would soon be able to install the update as well.
The video conferencing app also unveiled that it had integrated its solutions with traditional video conferencing solutions used by several organizations to collaborate across multiple offices. The report stated that this would enable organizations to allow their employees to collaborate from offices and homes at the same time.
The JioMeet video conferencing app can support up to 100 participants in a single call. It has multi-device support and allows users to log in to 5 devices simultaneously.
JioMeet was launched on July 2 and is free of cost. The app is available on Google PlayStore and Apple AppStore. If users want to download the JioMeet app on the desktop then visit https://jiomeetpro.jio.com/home#download.
