Zoom Meeting Controls

Hello! Is there a way to customize zoom meeting control tabs. For example there are a bunch of things on the default tab I don’t use or seldomly use such as Summary, AI companion, Apps, whiteboards. And other things I use commonly like breakout rooms. However, I now have to click MORE to get to breakout rooms when I would rather have it on the default row. Is there a way to customize the tab or if not a way to suggest Zoom changes that? Thanks in advance

If you're an account admin, you can disable these features for your (or the host of the meeting)'s account and they will no longer show up as options on the toolbar in meetings you host.

 

Note that the toolbar reflects the settings of the host's account ONLY, so if you join somebody else's meeting who doesn't have these features disabled, you'll see them on the toolbar again.

 

These features can be disabled at the individual profile level, as well as at the group and account levels.

But no, there is no way to currently customize the order of icons when inside a meeting.

Please submit a feature request, as others have asked for this as well; the more requests for a feature Zoom receives, the more likely they are to implement it in a future release.

I have this same problem. It is annoying and time consuming to have to fish stuff out of the ...

and have space taken up by icons I never use.  I don't know how to fill out a feature request.

Account-wide settings can be disabled via the various tabs at zoom.us/account/setting - disabling certain features will result in disablement of respective controls in meetings for all users on your account.

 

You can also disable these features at the individual profile level here: zoom.us/profile/setting

Please note that some settings at the individual level may be locked by your admin at the account level.
