(Duo and Hangouts are perfect examples) Besides, all the Zoom “app” does is open the video chat in a nice little windowed web app. Now, I’m not against using apps but there are plenty of video chat platforms out there that work solely with web technology and require no downloading of apps or extensions. The first time you use Zoom you will be prompted to: o Enter your name. When you click a link to join a meeting, you are prompted to head over to the Chrome Web Store to install the Zoom App. This should automatically open the Zoom app on your iPhone/iPad. The circumstances may not be the best but cheers to Zoom for such substantial growth and for providing a low barrier to entry for users to create video chat rooms for education, social gatherings and remote work meetings.Īs simple and convenient as Zoom is, there is one particular feature that was a bit of a frustration for me. Since the beginning of 2020, the cross-platform meetings application has gained more new users than it did for the entire year of 2019. If you’ve joined the meeting before the host, you might be shown a holding screen until they join and start the meeting.Chances are good that, given the events of the past two months, you’ve heard of or even used the teleconferencing platform Zoom.
Assuming you’re joining a UK call with a UK phone number, you will be charged your normal call rate with no extra fees.
Calling into a meeting is simple: just dial the number you were given and enter the Meeting ID when prompted. If you can join by dialling in, the organiser will have sent you the Meeting ID and number to call when they invited you. Zoom is a video conferencing service used by companies and universities for remote.
Dialling in with mobile should be saved as a last resort, especially as some meetings may not support it. You can use Zoom to participate in or host video meetings on your computer or mobile device. This makes it a better experience for everyone and will allow you to view any resources being shared in the call, such as a presentation. It’s always best to try and join a meeting online using the Zoom app on your computer or smartphone/tablet if possible. You can’t join in browser on tablets or smartphones. If you haven’t downloaded the app you'll be automatically taken to a webpage asking you to download it. When asked what you’d like to open the link with select "Zoom".
