VMeet is a video meeting app owned by the Kerala Government. It is listed on Google Play under Kerala Appstore and is published by KSITM. The app is made for video conference meetings, including meetings where internet speed is not very high.
The app can be useful for government offices, teams, and groups that need to join meetings online. The current Google Play listing shows 50K+ downloads, and the app was updated in July 2026.
How It Ran During Testing
I could not verify a genuine two-day Redmi hands-on test for the current VMeet version. Because of this, I will not make up battery loss, phone heating, menu lag, frame drops, crashes, or visual bug results.
The current version is listed as 26.0708.0953, and a third-party Android listing reports a 64.1 MB download package. It also lists Android 6.0 or newer as the required system version.
For a proper Redmi test, the important checks would be joining a meeting, opening menus, turning the camera and microphone on and off, sharing content, and staying in a call for a longer period. Battery and phone temperature should be checked before and after those tasks.
Top Features
- Video Meetings: VMeet is built for video conference meetings. It is designed to support meetings even when internet bandwidth is lower.
- Audio Support: The app supports audio as part of its video meeting service. This lets users take part in meetings where voice communication is needed.
- Video Communication: Users can take part in online meetings through video. This makes it possible to see other people during a meeting instead of using voice only.
- Low-Bandwidth Meetings: The app is designed for video conferences on lower internet bandwidth. This is one of the main points mentioned in its Google Play description.
- Government Platform: VMeet is owned by the Kerala Government and supported by KSITM. This makes it different from many private meeting apps.
Storage & Privacy Details
The latest third-party listing shows a 64.1 MB XAPK package for version 26.0708.0953. The actual storage used after installation can be different because Android may create extra app files and cache.
VMeet needs an internet connection for online meetings. Video and audio calls cannot work fully offline because the meeting has to connect to other participants.
Google Play says the app may share photos and videos, audio, and three other data types with third parties. It may collect personal information and messages, while Google Play also says data is encrypted during transfer and that users can request deletion of their data.
Camera and microphone access are normally important for a video meeting app, but I could not verify the exact permission prompts shown on a current Android phone. Users should read each permission request before allowing access.
Alternative Apps
VMeet competes with apps such as Zoom and Google Meet for online meetings. Zoom and Google Meet have wider use and many meeting tools, while VMeet is focused on a Kerala Government-owned video conference service. VMeet is free to download, but the features and meeting access can depend on how the service is used by an organisation.

Common User Questions
Is VMeet a Kerala Government app?
Yes, Google Play describes it as a Kerala Government-owned video conferencing platform. It is published through Kerala Appstore by KSITM.
How much space does VMeet need?
The latest listed package is about 64.1 MB. The final space used on your phone can be higher after installation and cache files are created.
Is VMeet safe for meetings?
Google Play says data is encrypted during transfer. It also says the app may share some data types with third parties, so users should check the current privacy details before use.
Offzack Verdict
VMeet is a focused video meeting app made for the Kerala Government system. Its 64.1 MB package is not very large for a video meeting app, and its low-bandwidth focus may help its intended users. I could not verify a real two-day Redmi test, so exact battery, heating, lag, and crash results should not be claimed.
