How to Enable Safe Driving Mode on JioMeet.
JioMeet is a newcomer to the video conferencing industry. While still in beta, it looks an awful lot like the Zoom app and boasts features such as 24-hour meeting time, a 100-member limit, and more. Another feature it shares with the Zoom app is Safe Driving Mode.
Safe Driving Mode, as the name suggests, comes in handy when your phone is attached to your car dashboard. When activated, it mutes your voice and mutes video, so you can easily hear what is happening in the meeting without disturbing it with the noise around it.
As many of you are using JioMeet app for the first time or are not familiar with this setting in Zoom app. Here’s how to enable Safe Driving in Jio Meet.

How to enable safe driving mode on JioMeet
To enable this setting, open the JioMeet app on iOS or Android and click Settings at the bottom. Now select Meeting, scroll down to Safe Driving Mode and turn it on. Now that you have Safe Driving Mode turned on, every time you are in the middle of a meeting and find yourself in the driver’s seat, simply swipe right and turn it on. You can also return to normal mode at any time by swiping left again.
As I said, the Zoom app and JioMeet are almost copies, so you can follow the same steps to enable this mode in the Zoom app too. Safe Drive mode works in a similar way to a walkie-talkie, in that you have to tap the circle in the center of the screen to speak and tap again to mute the microphone again.
Concluding remarks
We see new video conferencing apps emerging from time to time, but even after that, Google Meet and Zoom apps remain the first choice for most users. Just to add a personal note, I moved most of the meetings to JioMeet, and while it’s still in beta it has never crashed. If you have JioMeet available in your country and aren’t sure which one to choose, we’ve already compared all of these platforms so you don’t waste time picking.
