Currently, Google Meet video recordings do not allow viewers to download or copy them by default unless the recording owner explicitly allows it.
Starting April 30, 2026, Google will change this default for future recordings. Moving forward, recording owners will need to manually restrict this setting for individual recordings if you do not want viewers to be able to download or copy them. Any existing recordings will not be affected.
See the Stop, limit, or change sharing Google Docs Editors Help article for more information.
