During a Google Meet tab presentation, you can replace the shared Chrome tab without ending the conversation. This helps when moving from a document to a separate web page. Check the new page before switching because the audience will receive that tab’s content after the change.
Prepare the next tab
Open the next page in Chrome and confirm its title, content, and account. Remove private panels or messages from that page. Keep the original presentation active while you prepare the new tab if that fits the meeting, but avoid telling participants that a page is visible before you have actually switched the shared source.
Use the tab-switching banner
Select the tab you want to present. On the sharing banner, click Share this tab instead. Google’s presentation instructions describe this as the way to replace a shared tab. Check the presenting indicator afterward and confirm it identifies the intended source. If you cannot find that banner, return to Meet and inspect the active sharing state rather than opening a second meeting.
Verify content and sound
Ask a participant to name a harmless heading or visible feature on the new page. If the tab contains media, inspect its shared-audio state and test a short sample before continuing. Google’s Chrome-tab workflow shares tab audio by default, so a silent document becoming a media page can change what the audience hears. Avoid sharing the meeting tab, which can create a repeating mirror effect. If annotation tools were part of the discussion, check their availability on the new presentation before promising continued markup. When the final page is finished, use Stop presenting and verify that the new tab is no longer being shared before navigating to unrelated information.
