Enabling Zoom Apps visibility
Account admins can control access to the Zoom Apps button on the desktop and mobile app at the account, group, and user levels.
As this only affects users when they are signed-in to your account, if you require Zoom Apps to be disabled on the desktop app directly, regardless of which account they are signed-in to, please refer to the DisableZoomApps option available for MSI, plist, GPO, and Zoom for Intune (iOS) deployment.
Learn more about admin management of the Zoom App Marketplace.
Note: Account owners and admins can control the availability of the Zoom Apps button in Zoom Phone through the existing admin Zoom Apps Quick Launch Button setting.
