Launch the FigJam whiteboard app directly from Google Meet Series One Board 65 and Desk 27 devices

What’s changing

Since September 2023, Workspace users have enjoyed the convenience of launching FigJam, Figma’s free online whiteboard, directly in Google Meet. We’re excited to announce that you can now launch FigJam both in and out of an active Meet call from the Series One Board 65 and Desk 27 devices.

Who’s impacted

Admins and end users

Why you’d use it

Prior to this update, these rich collaborative tools were only available within a Meet call — now you can launch them from Board 65 and Desk 27 devices outside of a call for on-demand collaboration and problem solving. Existing Jamboard customers can find more resources related to the FigJam and Google Meet integration here.
