What’s changing
You can now customize the styling of captions in Google Meet, including the font size, font type, color, and background color. This allows for the captions to be customized in a way that works best for you.

You can customize captions during the meeting by hovering over them or by going to Settings>Captions>Customize your captions. Your settings will persist across your meetings and can be changed at any time.
