How Do I Make a Call From the Gmail App?

From the Gmail app, follow these steps to make voice or video calls: When the recipient accepts, the call will begin within the app. For voice calls, you’ll see the call duration at the top of the screen. If the person doesn’t have the Gmail app, their phone will not ring, but they might see that you tried to call. If the person doesn’t answer, they will see a notification in their Chats. Likewise, when you miss a call, you’ll get an alert in your Chats.

Why Can’t I Make Calls in Gmail?

There’s a chance this feature has not rolled out in your region. Try updating the app and checking your app permissions to ensure Gmail can access your microphone and camera. If you don’t see voice and video call options in your Chats, you can send an invitation to video chat via Google Meet. In a chat, tap the Plus (+) next to the text field, then tap Meet link.
