Use the Live Face Swap for Google Meet Chrome extension to send your website result to one Google Meet call. Allow a few minutes to check the picture and microphone in a private meeting before using it in a live call.
Before you connect
- Install Live Face Swap for Google Meet in desktop Chrome. Open the website and the Meet call in the same Chrome profile.
- Sign in to Live Face Swap. You need an enabled Face Swap engine and enough credits to start a session. Check the displayed rate before starting.
- Use a reference image you have permission to use. Let participants know about the effect when appropriate. Keep the Meet camera off while preparing the result.
Connect the result to Google Meet
- On the website, choose Face Swap, select a reference, and click Open camera. This is a local preview. Click Face Swap to start generation, then wait for the transformed result to move.
- Click Connect Meet below the result. If multiple calls are open, switch to the meeting you want, open the extension, and select Connect this meeting.
- In Meet, open More options → Settings → Video, select Live Face Swap Camera, and turn on your Meet camera. Check the picture in Meet. For a private test, ask a trusted participant or use a second device to check what others see.
- Select your microphone separately in Meet’s audio settings. The extension sends video. Keep the website tab open while sharing.
Stop sharing or restore your camera
Open the extension in the connected meeting and select Stop sending. The extension switches the meeting output to its paused privacy screen and requests that the website end generation. Go back to the website and confirm the session has ended and usage has settled. If the connection never completed, use End session on the website.
Turning the Meet camera off or closing the extension panel does not end website generation. If you recorded the result, use the recording and download guide to save it.
To go back to your physical camera, keep the Meet camera off, choose Use original camera…, then confirm Restore & refresh. The meeting page reloads. Rejoin if needed, select your physical camera in Meet, and turn it on when ready.
Troubleshooting
- Connect Meet is missing or the extension cannot find the meeting Check that the extension is enabled in the same Chrome profile, the Meet tab has joined the call, and the website shows a moving Face Swap result. If prompted, refresh the Meet page before reconnecting.
- Live Face Swap Camera is missing Open the extension in the intended meeting. If more than one meeting is open, connect that meeting explicitly. Reopen Meet’s video settings after connecting. If the extension asks you to refresh Meet, rejoin as needed.
- Meet shows the original camera, a paused screen, or a frozen frame Turn off the Meet camera first. Check the selected camera, the extension’s connection state, and the moving result on the website. If the connection dropped, end the old session on the website before starting a new one and reconnecting. During a network outage a participant may still see the last delivered frame.
- The picture works but no one can hear you Select a microphone in Meet, check its permission and unmute in Meet. The microphone used for website recording is separate.
- Generation still appears active after stopping Open the website and use End session if it is still generating. If it shows that stopping or settlement is pending, check that state on the website before starting again.
If the issue persists, use Copy diagnostics in the extension before restarting Chrome. Email support@live-face-swap.net with the failing step, what participants saw, and the website’s session status. The diagnostic log is copied locally and is sent only if you share it. See the privacy policy for what the extension processes.
