Previously, users were able to make calls from within the Gmail app, but it required sending an invite to a Google Meet video conferencing call. However, you can now use simple phone and video icons in the top right of every one-on-one chat for calls.

The new feature only works for one-on-one calls. For group voice or video calls, users will still need to follow the old invite route.
