The Best Chrome Extension to Auto Join Google Meet: A Comprehensive Review

Auto Join Meetings Team · September 9, 2026

Google Meet is the one platform where Auto Join Meetings goes all the way: from a calendar event to an active call, with no clicks required on your end. Here's exactly how that works, step by step.

The full flow, on Basic

The extension reads your connected Google Calendar and/or Outlook calendar and detects the Google Meet link on an upcoming event.
A few minutes before the meeting starts, it opens the Meet link in a new tab automatically.
On Basic, it also clicks "Join now" for you.
It then confirms you actually entered the call — not just that the page loaded.

That confirmation step matters: a lot of "auto-join" tools stop at opening a tab and call it done, leaving you to notice (often too late) that the click didn't register or the page needed a permission prompt first.

What's included on Free

On the Free plan, Google Meet gets the same automatic tab-opening as every other platform — up to 3 times a day. The auto-click and entry confirmation are available on paid plans, since they require the extension to actively interact with the Meet page rather than just open it.

How it compares to just using calendar notifications

Step	Calendar notification	Auto Join Meetings (Basic)
Alerts you a meeting is coming	Yes	Not the focus — it acts instead
Opens the Meet tab	No — you click the notification	Automatic
Clicks "Join now"	No	Automatic
Confirms you're actually in	No	Yes

Why Google Meet specifically

Google Meet's join flow is consistent enough in the browser that we can automate the whole path reliably. That's not true yet for every platform — see our transparent status pages for Zoom (early prototype) and Microsoft Teams (tab opens automatically, click still manual). We'd rather under-promise on those than overstate what's automated.

Getting started

Install the extension, connect your calendar, and Google Meet events start opening automatically right away — the auto-click piece unlocks with Basic or an AppSumo lifetime code.

Let Google Meet open — and click "Join" — itself.
