Attendance for Google Meet Chrome extension

What Attendance for Google Meet does

This extension watches a Google Meet call and records who joins, so hosts and teachers don't have to manually note names. Once the call ends, you can export the attendance list, and if you use Google Classroom, it can sync attendance data with your class rosters.

Attendance for Google Meet free vs paid

The extension is available to install for free from the Chrome Web Store. Core attendance tracking and export work without a subscription; check the developer's own site for any details on paid tiers for larger organizations or extra reporting features.

Is Attendance for Google Meet safe?

The extension requests permissions including tabs, identity, and Google Classroom/Drive scopes through OAuth, which it uses to identify participants and sync rosters. It only activates on meet.google.com pages. Because it processes attendee identities, review the requested scopes before granting access, especially in a school setting.
