Hi ET, In my latest testing, even on iOS/iPadOS, the muting does not stop VO from announcing the chat messages. I’m playing with VO settings, System settings and Zoom settings, and haven’t found any useful solution yet, other than turning off VO to turn them off. that’a little drastic, but does the trick if you’re not participating in the chat or any other part that requires VO.
Still working on it though, so I’ll update if I have an epiphany.

Likely I will use the iPhone, and see how it goes. Can the chat notifications be disabled completely in settings? Then check for new chats manually? I may not get to testing for a while as I need to resolve a headache first. At least I now have a Zoom account. >From E.T.'s Keyboard...
