Getting started

Licenses allow your device to work with the Google Meet service and gain access to device management tools in the Google Admin console. Visit the Help Center to learn more about licensing.
- End users: If a on-device suspension warning occurs, people in the room will see a warning when the device is 3 days away from suspension.
