Zoom Clips — All features broken after recent update, clients can’t download clips!

Hello — I’m really disappointed with Zoom Clips lately. Since the most recent update (around [insert date]), none of the features seem to work as expected.

  • I record clips, but when I share the link with clients, they get an error when trying to download or view them. We are absolutely sure the sharing settings are correct.

  • I’ve lost multiple important clips — they simply vanished from the library, even though I never deleted them. This is very concerning.

  • I relied on Zoom Clips for delivering training materials and client deliverables. Now I have to re-record everything or switch to another tool, which is a huge time sink.

  • I tried contacting Zoom support, but only got boilerplate responses or referrals back to community forums. That doesn’t help when I have paying clients waiting for content.

If Zoom wants people to trust Clips for professional use, these issues need to be addressed immediately. I’m asking:

  1. What backup/recovery options exist when clips disappear?

  2. Why are clips not accessible to recipients despite giving appropriate permissions?

  3. When will Zoom ensure Clips become stable and reliable for professional workflows?

Hi Hananbukhari, thanks for your feedback.

I'm sorry to hear about your experience with Zoom Clips. I personally use Zoom Clips quite a bit for my training sessions and workshops, and I understand your frustration.

I'm sure you've checked your Zoom Clips settings and the "trash" folder in your Zoom account. So, I'd like to ask if you've been using Zoom Clips with a paid Zoom license or a free license, as this could lead us down different paths to finding a solution.

If you have a paid license and it expired for some reason, and you reactivated it after 30 days, your recordings are most likely lost. If you reactivated it before 30 days, you might be able to recover them by submitting a support ticket. I know you've already submitted one, but I can help you approach it differently.

If you have a free account, there's a limit on the number of clips you can create, and to create new ones, you need to delete the old ones. Therefore, it wouldn't be possible to recover them.

I look forward to your feedback so I can continue supporting you.
