How to Host a Zoom Meeting

During the holiday season, Zoom becomes one of the most popular video conferencing apps, enabling virtual interaction with co-workers. It has a range of features that can make a big difference to your video quality.

Zoom offers a range of security tools that can be accessed by clicking on the security button. They can be used to mute participants, lock the meeting, and disable private chat. You can also report a participant who is behaving badly. If you want to prevent troublemakers from coming back, you can block them in the future.

If you use a mobile phone to host a Zoom meeting, you can view up to four participant's video simultaneously. You can use your own background or a virtual background that doesn't have a green screen. You can even add cartoon stylings to your camera.

For collaborative meetings, it's important to set the Zoom recording to record everyone. If you're hosting a broadcast style call, however, you can set it to only record the host. You'll also be able to disable the attendee's annotations.

To schedule recurring meetings, you'll need to create a new meeting ID. Then, you'll need to generate a list of attendees. You can do this from the desktop client or the Zoom app on a mobile device. You'll also need to log in to your Zoom account.

When you're ready to begin a meeting, open the Zoom app on your mobile device. You'll see a list of participants and their video thumbnails.
