Be the Champion of Zoom tricks

The clout around Zoom refuses to die, while the long-standing names like Skype and GoToMeeting, Cisco WebEx ponder as to how and when Zoom overtook them. The Zoom blog is already flanking yet bolstering its own approach with new guides for users for hosting Workouts and improving remote working on the Zoom Phone.

While competitors like Facebook and Google have already started throwing their weight behind their Video meeting products. We already discussed about the safety and privacy issues lingering around Zoom use. And you can easily fake Elon Musk entry into a Zoom call using Deepfakes. Here is how you ace a Zoom meeting with these tricks

Swift arrival

When you are a late entrant to a meeting, it is wise to enter silently, using the option provided. Go to Settings>Audio> Always mute the microphone when joining a meeting.

You may always un-mute your microphone when you want to speak using the Mute button.

Invite people instantly

In case you forget to invite a participant and your meeting has already started, you can invite them instantly with Alt+I on a PC or ⌘Cmd+I on a Mac to Invite Window.

Be in the kitchen but don’t look like it

While you may be working from home, you might want to leave everyone guessing about it using a custom background. This comes in handy while not affecting the overall mood setting of the call and maintaining professionalism. No one likes to have a sink full of dirty dishes in their Video background.

Go to Settings > Virtual Background> Select the desired image.

Never miss a Zoom meeting

Download and install Zoom App for iOS or Android. In the App Settings, select the Meeting Reminders option so that you get a notification whenever a scheduled Zoom meeting is about to start. And you may join it with clikc of a button on the App itself, even if you are away from desktop computer.

Mute all in one shot

Do this by Alt+M on a PC or ⌘Cmd+Ctrl+M on a Mac. So going forward, if any participant needs to speak, they will manually unmute their microphone and this avoids chaos. And not everyone is present in a silent setting.
