Raise your hand button missing

Hi!

 

The "raise your hand" button is missing for me...

When I click on the participants button, I should be able to raise my hand by a button on the bottom of the list of the participations but there is no such button, only to unmute me and to invite someone to the session. Does anyone know where this button is in my case?

 

Kind regards!

    It can be frustrating when a button you rely on suddenly vanishes! The "Raise Hand" feature has actually moved in recent updates to keep the interface cleaner.

    Here is where you can find it now:

    • Check the Reactions Button: On your meeting toolbar, click on Reactions. You should see a large Raise Hand button right at the bottom of that pop-up menu.

    • Host Permissions: If it's still missing, the host might have disabled non-verbal feedback. It’s worth a quick message to them to see if they can enable it in their meeting settings.

    • Keyboard Shortcut: You can also bypass the menu entirely by pressing Alt+Y (Windows) or Option+Y (Mac).

    If you are using an older version of Zoom, the button might still be tucked at the bottom of the Participants panel, but updating your app is the best way to ensure it appears in the Reactions menu.
