I. Intro

You, or any meeting participant, can create a discussion group to include all participants with one tap, saving the effort of one-by-one invitations. In the meeting group, all participants can gain access to the meeting background, view event information and the group announcement, jointly edit meeting notes, and record and share important information about the meeting. After a meeting is over, the meeting organizer can convert the meeting group into a standard chat group which is disassociated from the meeting event, so that members can discuss on more topics freely.
