Good to know

Join & Record starts a recording only when Auto-record is on. With Auto-record off, it opens the call and you click Record.

If something goes wrong

No reminders appear

Check that Google Calendar shows Connected and that Remind me before meetings is on. If Reminder style says Off, click Turn on… to allow Jiva’s notifications in macOS.
