Sharing screens is very useful for presentations, demos, classes and other meetings with other participants.

However, audio may only work in some cases when sharing your screen in Google Meet, putting participants in a frustrating situation.

You can share the screen on Google Meet with audio from the Present Now option in Windows 11 and adjust microphone settings. In addition, you can use your phone to share audio in Google Meet, but this feature is currently available for Workspace hosts only.

Fortunately, you have come to the right place. This article will show you how to share your video on Google Meet with audio on different platforms.

Note: There is no difference between the steps for sharing a screen with audio on Mac and Windows in Google Meet.

3. Use Another Mobile Device to Share the Audio

It is possible to use your phone’s Microphone while playing the video.

In this process, you do not need to adjust the Microphone settings in your Windows.

If you are using meet.google.com, you need to select the meeting> select Join> and select Use a phone for the audio option.

Then, click the Call me button and press 1 on your phone to continue.

After doing so, your phone serves as a mic, so you can also talk simultaneously while presenting a video from your PC.

It even mutes the audio from your PC while you are on a call.

Unfortunately, this feature is only available to Google Workspace hosts, not regular users.

Note: If you are in a different domain than the meeting owner, you may need to be approved by someone in the meeting.
