Best of all, it’s free and easy: one link, no sign ups, no downloads, no passwords. So much potential in one simple link!

Joining a meeting is just as easy as creating one. Simply click on the Meet Now icon in your system tray, click on “Join a meeting,” enter the invite link or code you received, and start chatting! Join as a guest or log in to Skype to have the full set of our features at your disposal.
