When setting a background in Meet
1920 × 1080 px is this tool's setting
This page creates images at convenient 16:9 dimensions. It does not present them as Google Meet's only required dimensions.
The orientation you see and the orientation others see
Even if the background appears mirrored in your own Meet video, other participants see it in the correct orientation. Also check how text looks from the other person's side.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to mirror the text beforehand?
Usually, prepare it in its original orientation. This page has no horizontal flip setting.
What if I cannot add a background?
Background availability varies by account, administrator settings, and other factors. Check the settings in Meet.
