Changes to existing features
- Renamed Optimize for Video Clip to Optimize for Video Sharing for clarity - Windows, macOS, Linux
When sharing a screen during a meeting or webinar, users can optimize screen sharing for the best full-screen video experience. This feature, known as Optimize for video clip, has been renamed to Optimize for video sharing across the Zoom Workplace app, Web app, and Web Portal settings to provide clearer understanding of its function.
New and enhanced features
- General features
- Unified contact requests and messaging experience on mobile - Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can view contact requests within the Contacts tab on mobile. They can also view an optional message with a received contact request under the contact request section within the Contacts tab. All previous contact request functionalities are retained and seamlessly integrated into the Contacts tab for an easier and more intuitive user experience.
- Meeting/webinar features
- Meetings and Webinars capacity alert and live streaming guidance for hosts - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Hosts that hold a license for the largest meeting or webinar attendee capacity, are made aware when a meeting or webinar is reaching capacity, so they can take measures and start live streaming to handle the overflow. When meeting or webinar capacity reaches 80%, hosts receive a prompt to start a live stream. At 100% capacity, another prompt appears, notifying hosts that the meeting or webinar is full and suggesting they start a live stream to accommodate additional attendees. These prompts only appear if the host is allowed to start a live stream and had not started one for the ongoing meeting or webinar. This feature ensures all attendees can participate in meetings and webinars, even if the capacity is exceeded. - Enable or disable Watch Livestream link for overflow attendees - Windows, macOS, Linux
Hosts can enable or disable the Watch Livestream link on the overflow dialog for attendees during a meeting or a webinar session. When a meeting or webinar reaches capacity, attendees have the option to watch the livestream if the host has enabled this setting. The default setting will be changed to enabled, allowing overflow attendees to automatically access the livestream. Hosts can disable this option if they prefer not to redirect attendees to the livestream. This feature provides hosts greater control over the overflow experience for attendees, ensuring they can participate in the meeting or webinar presentation. This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on a backend release, currently scheduled for September 8, 2024.
- Meeting features
- Ability to automatically record to computer - Windows, macOS, Linux
If enabled by their account owners and admins, certain meeting participants and those with specific domains can record to their computers without needing the host to grant these access during the meeting. Previously, Zoom only allows hosts to grant permission for users to record, requiring host intervention before a recording can start. - Ability to pre-configure upcoming breakout rooms during active breakout sessions - Windows, macOS, Linux
Hosts can pre-configure the next breakout room setup, including assigning participants to specific rooms, while the current breakout session is active. This feature enables a smoother transition between breakout sessions, as the next configuration is ready to launch immediately after the current session ends. Hosts can efficiently manage and prepare for subsequent breakout discussions, enhancing the overall meeting productivity. - Hosts ability to view presence and contact card for unattended meeting participants - Windows, macOS, Linux
Hosts can hover over attendees who have not joined a meeting to view their contact card and presence status. This allows hosts to quickly determine if an unattended participant is available or busy, enabling them to make an informed decision about using the Ask to Join button to call the participant into the meeting.
- Team Chat features
- External labeling in Team Chat - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Improved visual labeling will make it easier for users to identify channels and group chats that include external participants. These chats and channels will display an "external" tag at the top of the chat window, and the visual indicator in the compose box will be more prominent. - Streamline user experience with admin authorized apps in Team Chat - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can view and interact with admin authorized chat apps without being prompted for permissions. Users can see and click on shortcuts, enter slash commands, or open bot channels for these apps, the app onboarding flow is triggered automatically. After the admin authorized the app, users don't have to review permissions requested by the app again. - Enhancements to search and add members in chats and channels - Windows, macOS, Linux
Users can easily add new members to a chat or channel by searching for them in the 'view member' modal. The search results display both existing members and non-members, with an 'add' button next to non-members. Users can click the add button to add a non-member to the channel. The added member then appears in the member list. This streamlines the process of building effective communication channels and fostering collaboration within the team. - Enhancements to trending GIFs display on mobile - Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can access daily trending GIFs when opening the GIF panel in Team Chat. The GIF panel features an updated layout with a waterfall style grid that adapts to light and dark mode. - Pin Zoom Docs to Team Chat channel tabs - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Team Chat users can now pin existing or create new Zoom Docs directly within a channel tab. Once pinned, the doc is accessible to all channel members and can be viewed in split view mode alongside the chat. Pinning a doc follows the same user permissions as adding channel tabs. This feature enhances productivity by enabling teams to seamlessly reference and work on documents together within their chat conversations. - Ability to hyperlink URLs in compose box - Windows, macOS
Users can now hyperlink URLs seamlessly while composing messages in Team Chat. Pasted and typed URLs are automatically hyperlinked in the compose box, eliminating the need to manually format links after sending the message. Additionally, users have the option to customize the hyperlinked text through the hyperlink modal, which pre-populates the "text to display" field with the original URL for convenience. This enhancement enhances the messaging experience by simplifying link sharing and formatting.
- Mail and Calendar features
- Auto-reply drafting for email conversations - Windows, macOS
Using the Email Compose with AI Companion, users can have email replies automatically drafted for them. When replying to an email, the AI Companion analyzes the full context of the previous messages in the conversation and generates draft reply. This allows users to quickly review and send responses without manually providing context. The auto-reply drafting enhances productivity by saving time spent composing replies. - Add focus time to scheduling interface - Windows, macOS, Linux
When scheduling an event, users can select Focus time as the event type. - Improvements to mail client user interface and experience - Windows, macOS, Linux
Users can drag and drop labels in the label list and search for specific labels. They can also use both vertical and horizontal split views for their preferred inbox layout. The schedule send button has been merged into the send button with a dropdown menu, aligning with other mainstream mail clients and cleaning up the bottom toolbar.
- Phone features
- Enhancements to caching recordings and voicemails - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Zoom Phone (ZP) account owners and admins receive notifications and alerts when recordings or voicemails cannot be saved due to issues like call switch failover, recording server failure, or connectivity problems. Notifications are delivered through the Alerts and Notifications framework, webhooks, and Zoom applications (Zoom Web App, Zoom Phone Appliances, and the Zoom app). For regular recordings, users are prompted that the recording has stopped. Callers trying to leave a voicemail hear a message that the service is temporarily unavailable. If the customer does not opt-in to use Zoom's encryption key, alerts related to encryption key issues are also provided. This feature ensures better visibility and user experience when recording or voicemail services encounter problems. - Enhancements to voicemail greeting management for common area phones - Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can dial into the voicemail system by pressing the voicemail button or dialing *86 on common area phones. They can then select option 2 from the telephony user interface (TUI) to record or update the voicemail greeting. This allows users to manage voicemail greetings without requiring administrator assistance. The user's customized voicemail greeting uploaded through the IVR menu will be the voicemail greeting for only business hours (not for closed hours and holidays). - Enhancements to initiating two leg server side calls for landlines - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can initiate a two-way call to connect to a landline number when they have a poor WiFi connection. They can specify a landline number as a Call Me On number and receive a verification call from Zoom. During the verification call, users are prompted to press 1 to confirm the number. If not confirmed, Zoom informs users that the number failed verification. After confirmation, Zoom connects the first call to the user's landline and the second call to the destination number. This feature helps users with poor WiFi make outbound calls. This feature must be enabled by Zoom.
- Clips features
- Pop out clips playback page - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users have the option to pop out the clips playback page as a separate window, enabling them to watch a clip while simultaneously working within the Zoom app. This functionality allows for multiple pop-out playback pages to be open concurrently allowing users to multitask and have a dedicated space for clip viewing. - Customizable branding for Zoom Clips playback page - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Zoom Clips users can brand the web playback page and embedded video player with their own company logo and color scheme. The Zoom branding will be removed from the video page and embedded player, allowing users to fully customize the branding. This feature provides users with the ability to align the playback experience with their organization's branding. - Enhancements to clips view statistics - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Clip owners can now see statistics of their clips without counting their own visits or views. The Plays statistic has been added, which corresponds to the number of times users click the play button. This provides clip owners with more accurate insights into how their clips are being consumed by others.
- Contact Center features
- Increased maximum skill proficiency level - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Admins can now set the maximum skill proficiency level up to 25 for any Skill Category during creating or editing. Previously, the maximum proficiency level was limited to 5. This enhancement can better accommodate customers who require more granular proficiency levels. The higher proficiency levels enable more precise skill-based routing to connect customers with agents who have the appropriate expertise. - Audio settings for waiting room videos - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Account owners and admins can enable or disable audio for videos played in the waiting room experience. If enabled, the audio plays automatically when the video starts for consumers on web, mobile, or kiosk devices. However, consumers have the ability to mute the audio if preferred. - Synchronized work session tracking for agents across all platforms - Windows, macOS, Linux
Agents can end their work sessions from any platform, including the desktop app, web client, or embedded client, with the system automatically syncing the work session status across all platforms the agent is logged into. Admins can see the client details used for the last sign-in or sign-out in the usage reports. This ensures accurate tracking of work hours, especially for customers with concurrent licenses. - Team filter on the Closed Engagements page - Windows, macOS, Linux
Admins can use a Team filter on the Closed Engagements page in the desktop app to focus on specific teams and address performance issues with certain supervisors. Supervisors can see all their agents' performance in one place, without switching between different queues. The Team filter feature also adds the Teams filter and field to Wallboard tiles like Real-time Agent Performance, Recent Agent Performance, Agent Availability, Agent Ready, and Agent Occupied, making it easier for admins and supervisors to monitor team performance. - Consumer engagement history across channels - Windows, macOS, Linux
Agents and supervisors can view the engagement history for consumers for multiple channels, including email, authenticated messaging, and social media. The engagement history is linked based on the consumer's unique identifier, such as email address, authenticated consumer ID, or social media ID. Agents and supervisors can access key details like engagement duration, events, assigned agent, notes, and conversation summary. This allows agents to better understand the consumer's journey and provide personalized service. - Add transfer note to be displayed in notification to transferee - Windows, macOS, Linux
Agents can add an optional note when transferring an engagement to another agent. The note provides relevant context to the receiving agent, allowing them to better understand the situation and assist the consumer more effectively. Agents can cancel the note before completing the transfer. The note has a maximum length of 30 words or 114 characters and is included in the inbound notification to the receiving agent. - Enable sending MMS/image as first outbound message - Windows, macOS, Linux
Users with permission to send outbound SMS/MMS can now send MMS messages, including images, as their first outbound message. Previously, only text messages could be sent as the first outbound message. This feature enables users to share visual content like holiday greetings or other images from the initial outbound message.

Zoom addresses the issue of hosts unintentionally ending Simulive webinars by introducing a confirmation step in the desktop, mobile, and browser apps.

- Team Chat features
- Pin Zoom Notes to Team Chat channels - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)

They can find their frequently used rooms for quick rebooking, alongside a list of recommended and available room options.

This feature must be enabled by Zoom. - Calendar: Enhanced shortcuts - Windows, macOS, Linux

- Contact Center features
- Improved agent experience for warm transfers - Windows, macOS, Linux
Agents using the CTI connector can select which person (the original caller or the person they are transferring the call to) to talk to during a warm transfer. They can easily swap between the two parties before completing or canceling the transfer. When transferring to another agent or supervisor, or to a Zoom Phone user, agents have the same warm transfer experience. While the agent initiates the transfer and talks to the other party, the original caller hears music. This feature eliminates friction for agents who need to gather additional information from the original caller before completing the transfer. - Visual indicator for new messages in Zoom Contact Center - Windows, macOS, Linux
Agents using the Zoom Contact Center CTI connector can now receive visual and audio notifications for new inbound unread messages from end consumers across various channels, including SMS, chat, Facebook, WhatsApp, and video. The visual notification displays a count of new messages for background engagements, helping agents stay aware of incoming messages even when multitasking or working on multiple engagements simultaneously. This feature improves agent responsiveness and ensures timely responses to consumer inquiries.

Users can now scan QR codes more conveniently on the Zoom mobile app. The mobile app features an added QR code shortcut for quick access to scanning. Additionally, users can enable the flashlight to improve QR code scanning in dim lighting conditions. The Scan QR Code button is also repositioned for better accessibility on mobile screens. Users can even scan QR codes from images stored in their mobile gallery. These enhancements provide a seamless and efficient QR code scanning experience on mobile devices. - Enhancements to custom emojis - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Custom emoji sorting has been improved based on emojis added by the user and the most popular emojis. Additionally, hovering over a reaction or emoji will display its name and a larger view of the emoji, enhancing discoverability. Users can also copy and paste custom emojis within Team Chat, facilitating seamless communication. - Improved message editing capabilities for adding images, files, and text - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)

This feature improves the user experience when composing messages on the mobile app. - Simplified one-to-one chat invitations with external users - Windows, macOS, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can initiate a 1:1 chat with an external user by entering their email address. The system will prompt the user that this is a contact request and will be sent as an email invitation as well as an in-client notification. Invitees can accept or decline the invitation from the client after signing in or signing up. If accepted, a 1:1 chat is created with the inviter's message populated. This provides a clear and safe way to invite and communicate with external users in a 1:1 chat. The invitation will expire after 30 days. This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on a backend release, currently scheduled for June 20, 2024. - Expanded GIPHY search and display capabilities in Zoom Team Chat - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)

- On the call-to-action button within the modal
- On the share/forward card displayed when the message is forwarded, along with its corresponding icon. Share message will be substituted with Forward/Forwarded message in these instances.
Additionally, to ensure consistency across mobile and desktop versions, two buttons, Share separately and Create group chat, will be included in the share modal on desktop. Previously, these buttons were only accessible on mobile devices. This modification is intended to harmonize the functionality between the desktop and mobile versions of the feature.

- Phone features
- Prevent iOS native call interruptions for Zoom Phone VoIP calls - iOS, iOS (Intune)
Account owners and admins can enable an option to always use CallKit for iOS devices when making Zoom Phone calls.

This feature must be enabled by Zoom. - Introducing voicemail transcription general availability - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The voicemail transcription feature is generally available for additional languages, including French (Canadian), Spanish, Portuguese, and German.

Users can enable post-quantum end-to-end encryption (PQ-E2EE) for Zoom Phone calls. When enabled, users are notified that their call is "Post quantum end-to-end encrypted". As users update their Zoom desktop and mobile app to version 6.1.0 or higher, all end-to-end encrypted calls will start leveraging our latest post-quantum end-to-end encryption protocol. If PQ E2EE is unsupported by any participant's device, the call will default to standard end-to-end encryption (E2EE) when enabled. PQ E2EE in Zoom Phone is designed to withstand the threat of an adversary who can capture encrypted network traffic, hoping to acquire a quantum computer in the future and use it to decrypt the captured data. PQ E2EE offers the same security property as standard end-to-end encryption (E2EE), namely that the call is encrypted using cryptographic keys known only to the devices of the caller and receiver.
- Contact Center features

- Meeting features
- Support for post-quantum end-to-end encryption for meetings - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Post-quantum end-to-end encryption in Zoom Meetings is designed to withstand the threat of an adversary who can capture the encrypted network traffic, hoping to acquire a quantum computer in the future and use it to decrypt the captured data. As users upgrade their Zoom desktop and mobile app to version 6.0.10 or higher, all end-to-end encrypted meetings will start leveraging our latest post-quantum end-to-end encryption protocol. If PQ E2EE is unsupported by any participant's device, the meeting will default to standard end-to-end encryption (E2EE) when enabled. Additionally, the user interface is updated so that when meeting participants click the shield icon in the meeting window, next to Encryption, they’ll see one of the following encryption labels: Enhanced, End-to-end encrypted, or Post-quantum end-to-end encrypted. - Onsite poll QR code sharing - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)

For participants on platforms that do not support these features directly, a live video stream of the sharer's view will be provided. - Support for meeting participant controls - visionOS
Users will be able to click a meeting participant's video and take actions such as rename, ask to unmute, make co-host, and more. - Support for closed captions - visionOS

The email entered must match the address used to sign in to Zoom. This will ensure the accuracy of collected emails and provide a smoother join experience for webinar attendees. - Optimized video quality streaming for simulive webinars - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Simulive webinars stream at the highest quality that each attendee's device can handle. Previously, if one attendee's device couldn't handle 1080p, the quality would downgrade for all webinar attendees. The video quality is optimized for each attendee based on their device and network capabilities. Users with sufficient bandwidth and processing power will consistently receive 1080p quality.
- Team Chat features
- Team Chat Quick Reply with Zoom AI Companion - Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)

- Phone features
- Select correct Zendesk contact when a phone number matches multiple contacts in Zoom Phone app – Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The Zoom Phone app integrated with Zendesk has been enhanced to handle situations where a phone number matches multiple Zendesk contacts. When a match occurs, users will see an indication next to the contact info showing the number of matches. This indication is clickable, opening a pop-up window where users can view contact details and choose the correct contact. After confirming their selection, a Zendesk ticket will be created for the selected contact. This improves the user experience by preventing tickets from being created against the wrong contact. Additionally, an admin setting has been added to enable or disable this multiple contact selection feature. - Enable hosts to temporarily hold participants in multi-party calls – Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The conference host and co-host of a multi-party call can temporarily put one or all participants on hold. The host can toggle participants between being held or unheld. When a participant is held, they only hear the hold music set at the account level and cannot hear the main call. This enables hosts to have private conversations within a multi-party call. Hosts have options to start calls with all held, hold all at once, unhold all at once, hold individuals, and unhold individuals.
Note: Account owners and admins must contact Zoom Support to enable the Multi Party Conferencing feature for their account.
- Contact Center features
- New searchable skills drop-down when transferring to queue with routing profile - Windows, macOS, Linux
A new search capability to the skills drop-down has been added so agents can quickly find the appropriate skill to complete the transfer. It allows faster completion of transfers to queues with routing profiles. This applies to Zoom Contact Center channels where the skills modal is shown such as Zoom desktop app and Zoom Web App. - Persist outbound caller ID selection for agents across sessions - Windows, macOS, Linux
Agents can now persist their last used outbound number when sending SMS or voice engagements. Once an agent selects their outbound number, this selection will be remembered across clients within Contact Center. This enhances the agent experience by removing the need to re-select the same outbound number every time they log in or switch clients. Overall, it saves agents time and simplifies workflows when handling outbound SMS and voice engagements. - Sound alerts for new unread messages - Windows, macOS, Linux
When enabled, agents will hear a sound notification when they receive a new unread message for a background engagement they have open. This helps ensure agents receive audio reminders of messages needing a response when they are multitasking between engagements or applications. By notifying agents of messages requiring their attention, this improves agent productivity and consumer satisfaction. This feature must be enabled by Zoom.
- Events and Sessions features
- Enhancements to the Resources panel navigation in Zoom Workplace app – Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The Resources panel in the Zoom Workplace app has been redesigned to improve the overall user experience for both hosts and attendees.

Changes to existing features
- Zoom app now named Zoom Workplace app - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The Zoom app for desktop and mobile is now named Zoom Workplace, in order to align the app name with Zoom’s extensive product offerings that are designed to help users reimagine the way they collaborate. Users updating to this version will see the new Zoom Workplace branding in the app and as the app name in their app directory. This change also affects installer file names, so admins with mass deployments should adjust any scripts to account for the new file names (Zoom Workplace (32-bit), Zoom Workplace (64-bit), and Zoom Workplace (ARM64)). - Late joining participants no longer blocked from unmuting or starting video - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Participants joining a meeting that has already started recording, live streaming, or using an AI Companion feature will no longer be blocked from unmuting or turning on their video. They will still see the applicable consent prompts and have their audio (recording, live streaming, AI Companion) and video (recording and live streaming) muted, but will not be blocked from using these controls while the prompt is still visible. Previously, these consent prompts prevented users from unmuting or starting their video until the prompt was acknowledged and consent provided. - Consolidated Meeting and Calendar tabs - Windows, macOS, Linux
The Meetings and Calendar tabs are merging to provide the greater visibility of the calendar view with the meeting details needed for your daily tasks. Easily view and filter upcoming meetings, view the invitees and their responses, and review shared materials ahead of the session, while also reviewing previous meetings and their assets, such as recordings, continuous meeting chats, whiteboards, and more. This change will be rolled out to accounts over time and be controlled through a web setting available at the account, group, and user levels. Initially, Basic, Pro, and some smaller Business accounts will have this available with the March release, with this enabled by default for those Basic and Pro accounts. Other accounts can expect this in an upcoming release, which can be managed for eligible accounts through the Feature Release Controls. - End of support for Windows 7 and 8 - Windows
With this release, Windows users will need to be on Windows 10 or higher. Devices still using Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 will no longer be supported and will have 5.17.10 (or any additional patches in the 5.17.X branch) as the last version available. - End of support for x86 or and x86_64 Android devices - Android, Android (Intune)
With this release, Android users will need a device with an ARM processor. Devices with older x86 and x86_64 architectures will no longer be supported and will have 5.17.10 (or any additional patches in the 5.17.X branch) as the last version available. - End of support for iOS 11 and 12 - iOS, iOS (Intune)
With this release, iOS users will need to be on iOS version 13 or higher. Devices still using iOS 11 or 12 will no longer be supported and will have 5.17.10 (or any additional patches in the 5.17.X branch) as the last version available.
New and enhanced features
- General features
- Zoom desktop app color themes and visual overhaul - Windows, macOS, Linux
The appearance of the Zoom desktop app is overhauled with a new color scheme and icons. These color schemes, including bloom (blue), agave (green), and rose (red), are available when running the client in the light mode and can be chosen through app settings. These color themes are applied to the app global navigation bar, and the in-meeting window. - Additional MSI/GPO/MDM options
- Keep only one section open in Team Chat - KeepOnlyOneSectionOpenInChat - Windows, macOS, Linux
Disabled by default, this corresponds to the Only allow one section opened at a time setting for the desktop app, found under the Team Chat section of app settings. - Organize chats by section - SeparateIMChatAndChannel - Windows, macOS, Linux
Disabled by default, this corresponds to the Organize by section setting for the desktop app, found under the Team Chat section of app settings. - Disable Team Chat file transfers - DisableIMFileTransfer - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Disabled by default, admins can enable this policy to prevent file transfers through Team Chat for any account signed-in. - Allow file transfers for specific domains - AllowedIMFileTransferDomain - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Disabled by default, admins can enable this policy by specifying specific domains that their users are allowed to share files with other users associated with that domain.
- Meeting/webinar features
- Updated icons and meeting visuals - Windows, macOS, Linux
The in-meeting experience is updated with new icons and other visual changes to menus and toolbars. - Personalized in-meeting toolbars - Windows, macOS, Linux
Zoom Meeting participants can personalize the in-meeting toolbar by dragging-and-dropping to add, move, and remove meetings feature options to suit their needs. Buttons can be reordered, or dragged to/from the More menu. Personalizations for signed-in users will be synced across their desktop experiences. Additionally, the default in-meeting toolbar has fewer buttons and consolidated many options under the More menu to support improved ease of use. The Audio, Video, More and End options cannot be removed from the in-meeting toolbar. Additionally, the floating screen-sharing toolbar is updated and simplified to make it easier to use and more focused on core tasks while presenting during a meeting. - Improved collaboration with Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive files - Windows, macOS, Linux
Sharing files from Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive is updated to make it easier to select files and share them for in-meeting viewing or collaboration. First, the third-party service’s native file picker will be used to select a file, instead of the Zoom file picker. After selecting a file from Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive, choosing Collaborate (which will grant participants file editing permissions), invites all participants to join in collaborating on the document using their system browsers, - Improved voiceprint for personalized audio isolation - Windows, macOS, Linux
The Personalized audio isolation audio profile is enhanced to allow for users to make a short voice recording of them reading a predefined script. This helps to enhance audio isolation performance whether headset or non-headset microphones are used, even in open environments. Zoom will store and use your voiceprint for this purpose, until you delete it, which you can do at any time in your audio settings. - Improved Companion mode - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Connecting a device in Companion mode allows for easier video, chat, and sharing across multiple devices in any meeting. Connect in Companion mode from the Zoom app to view and respond to in-meeting chat or begin sharing the camera or an image on the device, all without joining the meeting as additional duplicate versions of yourself in the meeting. Start the meeting from another client, then connect on the desktop app and continue sharing a slide deck, managing participants, conducting a poll, and more. Additionally, when connected to a local Zoom Room in Companion mode, the Zoom Rooms Controller app, if enabled by admins, will no longer automatically open, but will still be readily available as an option in the control toolbar. Clicking will open the Zoom Rooms Controller app as a side-panel in the meeting window. This change in behavior to the Zoom Rooms controller app will currently only be available for the Zoom desktop app for Windows, with macOS to follow soon. This feature will be rolling out to accounts over the next few months. - Portrait lighting for video - Windows, macOS, Linux
The new portrait lighting setting allows Zoom to dim your background while brightening you in the foreground, making you stand out even more in your meetings. This is available through in-app video settings and has hardware prerequisites similar to using virtual backgrounds without a greenscreen. - SIP/H.323 interoperability UI enhancements - Windows, macOS, Linux
When a Zoom user client calls a SIP or H.323 Room System or destination, the caller ID will indicate the user name, instead of “Zoom” followed by the meeting ID. Also, some indicators embedded in the video stream sent to the SIP/H.323 destination, such as quality bars, participant counts, and participant name labels, are hidden to avoid duplicative or unnecessary information display. - Exclude hosts and panelists from survey participation - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
A new web setting can prevent individuals with hosting roles from participating in surveys, streamlining the administration process and ensuring more accurate and unbiased feedback from participants. This includes the host, co-host, and webinar panelists. - Consolidated notifications for enabled/disabled features - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Unnecessary and redundant in-meeting notifications are removed or set to not appear multiple times, clearing up visual clutter that may interfere with the live meeting. The initiator of a feature will not see a confirmation notification, as they are aware of the feature they are selecting, and when certain features are disabled, the corresponding notification is suppressed as well. - Automated captioning and translated caption support for Hebrew - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Automated and translated captioning support is expanding to include captioning for the Hebrew language. This language is enabled by default, but admins can control the availability of this language through the Automated captions and Translated captions settings within the web portal. - Greek, Bengali, Norwegian, and Welsh support for translated captions - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Accounts using the translated captions feature will be able to have automated captions translated from any currently supported language to Greek, Bengali, Norwegian, and Welsh, facilitating easier communication between participants in Zoom Meetings. Translated captioning is not yet supported when translating from these languages, as they are not yet supported for automated captioning. These languages are enabled by default, but admins can control availability of this through the Translated captions setting in the web portal. - Upcoming meeting reminders - Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Mobile app users can enable reminders ahead of their upcoming meetings, choosing how many minutes ahead of the meeting to have the reminder notification appear.
- Meeting features
- Multi-speaker video layout - Windows, macOS
The Multi-speaker video layout helps provide meeting participants a more engaging experience, dynamically adapting to current speakers by highlighting and enlarging their video tiles over others, while still providing a view of other participants in a smaller gallery view below. This will also be available when viewing shared content in side-by-side mode, with the speakers being more prominently displayed next to the shared screen or app window. - In-meeting AI Companion disable and delete - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Hosts, co-hosts, and participants (in the absence of a host) can choose to turn off all AI Companion features at once in a meeting. Additionally, they have the option to delete meeting assets generated thus far, such as recordings, summary, and transcript, to help ensure these assets are not unintentionally shared with anyone after the meeting. These options are available to the host and co-hosts by default, with participants able to request disablement as well. In the absence of either the host or co-host in a meeting, any participant will be able to disable and delete assets. - In-meeting AI Companion features combined enablement - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The host and co-hosts in a meeting can more easily enable both AI Companion features in a meeting with just a click of a combined Turn on all option under the AI Companion option in the meeting toolbar. This enables both Meeting Summary and Meeting Questions features for the current meeting. - Simplified AI Companion consent notifications for hosts - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
When the meeting host initiates the meeting summary or meeting questions features, they will no longer see the consent prompt, and instead will see a simple toast notification along the top of the meeting window, which will disappear after a few seconds. Other meeting participants will see the consent notification as a prompt along the top of the meeting window, but must acknowledge the prompt before it will disappear. - Meeting wallpapers - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Meeting hosts can customize the wallpaper in their meeting, adding more color and customization to their meeting view. The host or co-host can choose from preset images provided by Zoom or their account admins. With a selection made, they can also adjust how much to blend the participant videos with the wallpaper image. Admins can control use of this at the account level, as well as provide additional default images, which are available to the host and co-host during meetings. Images uploaded through the web portal by admins must be JPG/JPEG or 24-bit PNG with a maximum size of 15 MB. The recommended resolution is 1920x1080px. - Dynamic emoji reactions for video tiles - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Meeting reactions appearing in a user’s video tile, either in gallery or speaker views, are more dynamic with emojis appearing and floating up and around the user. This provides a greater visual indication of other video participant’s reactions for the presenter or speaker. These reactions only appear for video-on participants and can be disabled through the in-meeting Reactions settings. - Support for expanded remote control settings regarding external participants - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
The Zoom app supports recent changes to web settings to control the use of the remote control feature when external participants are present, which includes preventing guests from controlling other guests’ screens and preventing internal users from controlling a guest's screen. - AV1 video codec - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
To provide higher quality video while conserving bandwidth usage, Zoom continues rolling out this video codec to Pro accounts. Use of codecs, including AV1, is adaptive, and Zoom dynamically chooses the most appropriate codec.
- Webinar features
- Full emoji suite support for Webinar Reactions - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Similar to Meeting Reactions, Webinar Reactions are able to utilize the full suite of available emojis, in addition to the 6 standard emojis. Availability of all emojis versus the standard set can be controlled at the account, group, and user level settings page. - Improved Webinar Backstage experience before live session - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Instead of displaying a large Off Air indicator before the webinar is officially started and attendees are allowed to join, the current live webinar feed is displayed if there are panelists in the webinar space, with a smaller indicator showing that the webinar is still Off Air. This makes it easier to know what attendees will see in the webinar prior to attendees joining, making panelists more comfortable and confident ahead of the upcoming live webinar. - Removed email field for webinars not collecting emails - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
For webinars not collecting attendees’ email addresses, meaning registration is not required and the Include email address in attendee report setting is disabled, attendees joining the session will no longer be prompted to enter an email address. - Customized waiting room for Webinars - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Hosts and account admins can customize the waiting room experience for webinars, allowing customization of the image, text, and other waiting room assets that attendees see before joining each session and providing a more engaging and branded joining experience for attendees. These custom assets can be saved to webinar templates for reuse. Additionally, hosts can also view the number of attendees waiting to join while the webinar is in practice mode, allowing them to decide when it is the best time to end practice mode and allow attendees into the webinar. This feature will be rolling out to accounts over the next months.
- Team Chat features
- Team Chat Sentence Completion with Zoom AI Companion - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Team Chat users can use Zoom AI Companion to suggest words while they are in the middle of composing incomplete sentences. Phantom word suggestions will appear in light gray in the compose box, allowing users to accept suggestions by hitting the tab button. - Expanded language support Chat Compose and Thread Summary with AI Companion features - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
AI Companion features for Team Chat support a broader range of languages for both Chat Compose and Thread Summary features, expanding from 9 to 38 languages, including English. All supported languages will include English, French, French (CA), German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese (Simplified), Russian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, Ukrainian, Chinese (Traditional), Czech, Estonian, Finnish, Hungarian, Polish, Turkish, Vietnamese, Hindi, Romanian, Bangla, Danish, Indonesian, Malay, Norwegian, Tagalog, Tamil, Telugu, Swedish, Arabic, Hebrew, Cantonese, Thai, Greek, and Welsh. - Meeting assets included with Meeting Summary in Continuous Meeting Chat - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune)
The Continuous Meeting Chat experience has been enhanced to provide a quick snapshot of all meeting assets such as recordings, Meeting Summary with AI Companion, files, links, attachments, or Whiteboard links. Depending on the content generated during the meeting and the host's preferences, users will now have a quick and easy way to reference all these items in one place. If the meeting was cloud recorded, the host will see an interactive card in the meeting group chat, visible only to them, prompting them to share the recording with others in the continuous meeting chat. If shared, the posted meeting asset interactive card is updated to include the link to the recording. Other channel members will see Pending host approval until the host decides to share the recording. The same applies to the Meeting Summary with AI Companion if the host has the corresponding setting to share it only with themselves. - Increase Team Chat public channel limit to 250,000 members - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Team Chat public channels support up to 250,000 members, facilitating scalability for larger communities. Certain admin settings have been adjusted to compensate for the increased member count. - Enhanced functionality in Team Chat: Tabs, split view, chat settings and resource management - Windows, macOS, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Team Chat now includes tabs for whiteboards and important links, streamlining access to relevant resources. Owners and admins can pin essential resources in channels for easy access by all members. Users can collaborate on shared whiteboards in real-time within the chat interface. Tabs can be renamed, reorganized, or removed as needed. In group chats and direct messages, all members can manage tab content. Additionally, a split view feature enables simultaneous viewing of tab content and the main chat stream, enhancing productivity. The interface has been reorganized for efficiency, with the search function moved to the top of the chat stream and other options consolidated in the More menu. Chat resources are now accessible via the Resources tab, offering a more convenient experience for users. - Sort chats at folder-level - Windows, macOS, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
To enhance usability, the Team Chat folder will feature sorting view options at the folder level for the desktop app. The available sorting options will include My Custom Order as the default, Unread First, and Alphanumeric with numbers preceded by alphabets. Sorting views for the Starred folder will be introduced in a future release. - Markdown formatting - Windows, macOS, Android, Android (Intune), iOS, iOS (Intune)
Users can use markdown syntax to more precisely format their messages, allowing users to craft visually appealing messages by incorporating headings, lists, and various other formatting elements. Markdown support also enables users greater flexibility in structuring their messages to suit their preferences and requirements. - Sidebar filter enhancements - Windows, macOS
The desktop filter view for messages on the left sidebar aligns with the mobile experience:
- Mentions: Only @me and @group mentions are shown, excluding @all mentions.
- Direct Messages: The first 300 Direct Messages, including read and unread, are visible.
- Unread: All unread messages are displayed.
- Muted: All muted channels, including read and unread messages, are listed.
- Increase compose box size for macOS app - macOS
macOS users can adjust the height of the compose box on the Zoom app, allowing easier expansion of the threaded reply box and better visibility of the entire drafted message. This feature was previously only available on the Zoom desktop app for Windows. - Shared Spaces - Windows, macOS, Android, iOS
Shared spaces are a collection of channels and members that help organize work around a specific project, team, or topic.
Admins and users can create Shared Spaces for corporate communication, different business units, or departments. This allows for easier management of membership and ensures better access and usability for users within those spaces. However, on mobile, users can only read and reply in spaces; they cannot create them. This feature enables efficient collaboration and access to discussions and channels associated with important projects. Note: This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on a backend release, currently scheduled for April 22, 2024. - Support for Team Chat - visionOS
Vision Pro users can collaborate and continue conversations in Zoom Team Chat.

The Zoom Mail client will auto-complete users’ partially entered text by providing suggestions. Users can press the Tab button to accept the suggestion. - Enhancements to the signing in on the Zoom desktop client - Windows, macOS, Linux

In the Zoom desktop app, users can drag the Mail and Calendar tabs to separate windows. They can also open those tabs in a new window. - Switch accounts in Zoom mobile app - Android, iOS

- Zoom Clips features
- Enhancements to Zoom Clip Annotation and Drawing Tools - Windows, macOS
Zoom Clip has added new annotation and drawing tools that allow presenters to mark up their screens while recording. Users can now easily highlight important points, underline text, and draw shapes and diagrams to reinforce concepts. This helps presenters create more dynamic and visually engaging content. - Enhancements to embedding and sharing Zoom Clips - Windows, macOS
Account owners and admins have the option to allow users to embed Zoom Clip thumbnails in emails and social media. Once enabled, users embed either fixed clip thumbnails or utilize a script code to insert a clip into these environments. - Ability to share meeting recordings as clips with granular control - Windows, macOS
Account owners and admins can now enable meeting hosts to share full or partial meeting recordings externally as clips. Hosts have the option to trim recordings and select only relevant sections to share as clips. This allows hosts to provide focused content to external viewers. Furthermore, hosts can customize clip access and permissions when sharing meeting recordings to ensure the right people can view the clips. - Keyboard shortcut added for initiating Zoom clip recordings - Windows, macOS
A new keyboard shortcut has been implemented that allows users to instantly start recording Zoom clips during meetings. By pressing Alt+Control+C on Windows or Command+Control+C on macOS, users can immediately begin capturing important moments without having to navigate menus. This shortcut simplifies the recording process, enabling users to save time and focus on their recording.
- Phone features
- Common Area support for iPhones - iOS, iOS (Intune)

Admins can control the use of this feature with account and group level settings, with hosts also being able to enable this for individual meetings as well. - macOS Sonoma Screen Sharing support - macOS
macOS Sonoma users can utilize the native sharing support built in to app windows on their desktop.

Those with a lower app version can still join the webinar, but will neither be able to see the Q&A option on their control toolbar nor participate in Q&A. Without this enabled for your account, webinar attendees can only view Q&A submissions from after they joined the webinar.
- Team Chat features
- Enhanced UI for Thread Summary with AI Companion - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)

The Zoom Mail client supports viewing individual emails of the same conversation in an inbox so that users can view the date, time, and timeline of each message. - Share Zoom Calendar events with specific users - Windows, macOS

The Zoom Contact Center email channel has been enhanced to better differentiate between new incoming emails and replies or forwards of existing conversations. If a new email comes in that is a reply or forward of an existing open engagement, with only an edited subject line, it will now be merged into that existing engagement. This prevents duplicate engagements and keeps the full conversation history together. However, if the new email has the same recipients but is a new conversation, a separate engagement will be created. This update allows Zoom Contact Center to distinguish between continued conversations and new conversations with the same recipients. - UI enhancements to engagement controls - Windows, macOS
There are several UI enhancements to the following features to provide a more consistent experience for agents:
- The Engagement Controls across Voice, Video and Messaging have been moved to a common location in a toolbar below the main engagement area. This will provide agents a very consistent experience to find these controls in the same location for every engagement channel
- Some examples of the engagement controls that have been moved to the common location:
- Voice engagement controls such as mute, upgrading to video, add call, transfer, hold, and recording.
- Video engagement controls such as mute, start/stop video, chat, hold, transfer, share screen, and show captions.
- Messaging engagement controls such as transfer, release, and upgrade to voice/video.
- Redesigned left panel - Windows, macOS

New keyboard shortcuts are added to the desktop client, making it easier for users to quickly switch between Zoom product tabs. Additionally, the Windows desktop client is getting a General section in the Keyboard Shortcuts section, which includes the new options below and a few other shortcuts, relocated from other sections. The following shortcuts are added to the Keyboard Shortcuts section of the client Settings page:
- Ctrl+Tab: Move to the next tab
- Ctrl+Shift+Tab: Move to the previous tab

- Calendar and Contacts integration setup for mobile - Android, Android (Intune)
Zoom mobile app users can more easily set up the standard calendar and contacts integration with Zoom, allowing the Zoom app (both desktop and mobile) to show all their upcoming appointments, not just the Zoom Meetings created by them. - Improved multitasking during meetings - Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Mobile users can more easily interact with various Zoom features during a live meeting, while still being able to see most video tiles. This enhancement allows certain meeting controls, such as in-meeting chat and the participants list, to be opened initially over the bottom-half of the screen, still allowing visibility of video tiles above. These panels can be expanded to cover the entire screen, if the additional space is needed. This feature will begin rolling out to free users, with other accounts types to receive this functionality soon after. - Expanded product tabs on mobile - Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Tabs available on the bottom of the Zoom mobile app are expanding to include Mail and Calendar tab, making it easier for mobile users to access their email and calendar through Zoom. - Max bandwidth for Zoom Mesh parent-devices - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
To better adapt to weaker networks, each parent device is limited to a maximum bandwidth, which, when exceeded by child devices, triggers the parent device to connect to no additional child devices. For ethernet connections, the maximum bandwidth is 60 MBPS, and 15 MBPS for wifi connections. This has no effect on the setting for maximum bandwidth per attendee. - Update to OpenSSL 3.1.1 - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Due to the end of support by OpenSSL for version 1.1.1, the Zoom client is updated to use OpenSSL 3.1.1. Depending on your network security configuration, you may also need to update your network infrastructure devices’ firmware.
- Meeting/webinar features
- Annotation toolbar redesign - Windows, macOS, Linux
When annotating on a shared desktop or specific window, the annotation toolbar is redesigned to improve usability and reduce the screen space used by that toolbar. The toolbar is slimmed down and will snap to the nearest edge of the screen, orienting either vertically or horizontally. - Q&A usability enhancement - Windows, macOS, Linux
Threaded comments to submitted questions in Q&A are capped at displaying 2 comments before they are hidden behind a View More option. This aims to make reading submitted questions and their responses easier by reducing how other questions and expanding threads affect each other in the Q&A window. - Window merge-in enhancements - Windows, macOS, Linux
Side panels, such as the in-meeting chat and participants panels, can be easily popped out from the main meeting/webinar window for ease of use, and with these updates, they are even easier to merge back into the meeting/webinar window. Additionally, the Q&A window for meetings and webinars can be merged into the main window. Previously it was only possible to close or minimize the Q&A window, not merge it into the main meeting/webinar window. - Captioning controls redesign - Windows, macOS, Linux
The in-meeting/in-webinar captioning controls are redesigned to make captioning options easier and more intuitive to enable and adjust. Host controls are clearly separated from other controls available to all participants and some settings are renamed slightly to be more clear to users. - Enhanced manual captioning UI - Windows, macOS, Linux
The window where captions are manually entered more clearly indicates that captions appear for meeting participants or webinar attendees as the captioner types, rather than when hitting the Enter key.
- Webinar features
- Support multiple URLs in Webinar Resources - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Webinar resources can display multiple resource links at a time during a Webinar. When multiple links are enabled during the Webinar, attendees will be able to scroll through the links that the host enabled. This allows the presenter or host to provide a diverse range of supplementary materials, such as slides, handouts, reference documents, and relevant URLs.
- Team Chat features
- Custom emojis - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Users can create their own emojis, adding a personal flair to their conversations. All members in the user's organization can see and use these custom emojis in Team Chat conversations and reactions. Admins can view all uploaded emojis, including the uploader’s name and email address, upload date, and emoji name. Admins can also remove any emojis directly from the web portal. By default, custom emojis are enabled and all users can upload their own, but admins can also limit emoji creation through account settings by choosing whether all users in the organization can create emojis or only the admin(s) and specific users can create emojis. - Scheduled messages - Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Scheduled messages improve custom workflows and productivity in Team Chat, giving users the ability to schedule messages for future delivery. Users can also delay sending messages until the recipient’s work hours, showing courtesy and ensuring the message appears at the top of the recipient’s inbox. Previously, users had to choose between waiting to send messages (even if it meant working beyond their usual hours) or potentially disrupting the recipient. - Drafted messages listed in Drafts tab - Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Drafted messages are conveniently listed and accessible through a new Drafts tab within the Team Chat side panel. - Consent required for channel and group chat additions - Windows, macOS
Users will be presented with a consent notice before being added to an external channel or group chat. Adding external users to channels and group chats no longer requires contact requests. However, contact request approvals are still needed for one-on-one chats. This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on a backend release, currently scheduled for September 24, 2023. - Team Chat Thread Summary with Zoom AI Companion - Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Team Chat users can use Zoom AI Companion to help summarize a chat thread and quickly catch up on the discussion without having to read each response in the thread. - Add timestamp to the lists of existing chats in a dropdown - Windows, macOS
When a user initiates a new group chat with the same members, the user will see a timestamp indicating the last message sent in each existing chat with identical membership. The timestamp will allow users to easily distinguish between multiple group chats featuring the same members. This way, users can quickly identify which chat is most relevant or contains the information they're looking for. This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on a backend release, currently scheduled for October 15, 2023. - Enhancements to the Team Chat mobile experience - Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Various improvements to the Team Chat mobile experience are being introduced to maintain parity with the desktop client and enable users to quickly catch up on their prioritized conversations, including one-on-one chats, mentions, channels, and group chats with notifications. - Keep formatting when copying and pasting text in Team Chat - Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
Users can copy text with formatting from external sources, such as documents or web pages, and paste it directly into the Zoom Team Chat while retaining the original formatting. Additionally, formatting will be preserved when copying and pasting text within Team Chat, ensuring that the text appears as intended, whether it’s bold, italicized, in lists, or other formatting styles.

Users will always see the event details whenever they click the event invitation email. Previously, Zoom Mail displayed the following message for outdated events: “This invitation is out of date.” - Use dropdown menu to switch between calendars - Windows, macOS
Users can leverage the Zoom Calendar dropdown menu to easily switch between multiple calendars. Previously, users had to switch calendars in the Zoom Mail tab's Settings dropdown menu. - Propose a new meeting time - Windows, macOS

Note: This will not be available for Google Calendar. - Enable Switch & Join in sidebar and calendar view - Windows, macOS
The Switch and Join button is enabled for users in the Zoom Calendar sidebar and main calendar view. Users can switch between concurrent events. Previously, when users joined an event, the join button was disabled for other concurrent events. - Email all guests in calendar invite - Windows, macOS

- Phone features
- Incoming call focus - Windows, macOS
This feature is per request only, and if enabled for your account, users have the choice to opt for either permitting incoming calls to take focus or maintaining their ongoing focus. Existing users will experience no alteration in their behavior after the feature release, with incoming calls prioritizing focus over the application being used. New users will find that the default setting preserves the focus on the application in use when a call is received. - Bridge Zoom Phone call and Meeting audio - Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Android (Intune), iOS (Intune)
When Merge meeting audio to Zoom Phone invite during dial is enabled by admins, users can seamlessly integrate a Zoom Phone call with their ongoing meeting, allowing them to invite participants via phone numbers and navigate phone trees using DTMF tones, ensuring a more interactive and efficient communication experience during meetings. This feature will not be immediately available as it is dependent on a backend server update, currently scheduled for September 28.
