Mark,

I'm a big fan of the Zoom Cloud Meetings app as we use it for the various 
programs hosted by Accessible World. I wrote an overview of Zoom last September 
when Accessible World switched to it and you can access and download that 
overview here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/29pj8jzh1i2d59b/Zoom%20cloud%20meetings%20overview_2018-08-27.htm?dl=0

That overview is done from an Accessible World point of view but it is marked 
up with headings and you should find it easy to navigate in order to read the 
sections of interest.

I would urge you to set up your free Zoom account so you'll be identified by 
name whenever you attend a Zoom meeting using the app. I haven't noticed spam 
email from Zoom since setting up my account although they do send out notices 
from time to time regarding free meetings about using the Zoom product.

As far as tips for using the app, I'm a big fan of getting the meeting ID and 
entering it in the app as opposed to executing a meeting link. I've just found 
the former process to be more straightforward and successful for me. When I 
launch the app, 4 buttons are near the top of the screen and are New Meeting, 
Join, Schedule, and Share Screen. I always double tap the Join button, am 
placed in the meeting ID text box, and input the meeting ID using the on screen 
keypad presented in the bottom third of the screen. If you regularly attend the 
same meetings, a meeting history button on this join screen will provide you 
with a picker list of past meetings through which you can scroll to pick a 
previously attended meeting. Finally, after I've joined an in-process meeting, 
I always execute the participants button on the bottomline menu because it 
gives me a list by name or phone number of those signed into the meeting. 
Voiceover works very well with this app and I've had no accessibility issues.

I hope the above is helpful but post back if you have more questions.

Alan Lemly

Subject: Any Tips on Using the Zoom Cloud Meeting App, for iOS?

Hello Everyone,

I just downloaded the Zoom cloud meeting app, for iOS.

As I have never used a cloud meeting app, before, I would appreciate any tips 
for using it with VoiceOver.

What do I need to get started, just an email address?  

I hope this is not another one of those apps that begins to spam you with 
unsolicited emails, once you sign up for a quote, free, quote, account.

Thank you,

Mark

No, it is straight forward.  I use it 3 times a week, although mine is a pro 
account.  You just need email, password, and you are ready to go.  They do not 
spam you, and there customer service is great!  The only difference between a 
pro account and free account, is every 45 minutes you must restart the meeting, 
unless it’s just you and one other person, then there is no limit, but 3 or 
more with a free account, the meeting times out every 45 minutes.  Then of 
course there is the cost, witch I think is way to high, but who am I?  
Thankfully I share the cost with someone who I share the account with.  Lastly, 
I think you cn only record with a pro account also, and you need to be in the 
desk top app to do that.  HTH

Re: Any Tips on Using the Zoom Cloud Meeting App, for iOS?

[Richard Turner]

Mark,
I think you will be pleased.
The only things they mail you are offers for training on the app, and a few 
sales attempts to get you to sign up for a premium account; but they aren't bad.
It is by far the easiest and best meeting app on the planet!
I work for a State agency and because it is completely accessible on all 
platforms, they switched from Go To Meeting; to Zoom and for a premium account 
allowing up to 100 participants in a meeting was about the same price.
For an individual, you can have one-on-one meetings for unlimited length of 
time for free.
And group meetings for 40 minutes for free.
It is pretty straight forward. Take it for a spin and see what you think.
Richard
