We are in a remote location with cellular data only (via a WiFi hotspot). The connection is fast, but the cost is high. There seems to be no way to limit the video quality or otherwise reduce data consumption, other than to turn video off. Is that true?

Campbellglend,

Welcome to the Zoom Community. Assuming you are using high-def, in the video settings, there is an option to toggle off HD video. If you are not using HD, there is no way to toggle down the video any further.

@colegs In my case that setting is checked and grayed out, so I cannot uncheck it. How do I uncheck it in this case?

@johnpan I am not sure if you moved from a different account, but usually you cannot check the box if you don't have permission for HD, which is why it would be grayed out. I will research further.
