I have been trying to enable  and utilize the timer app on a chromebook. I have installed the timer, tried to enable zoom apps, and went through a bunch of different methods and can not seem to access timer or any apps in zoom on chromebook. Am I missing something or has anyone been able to find any work arounds to make this work?

I have the same issue and I see no one has replied to your question from May 5.  Did you by chance figure out how to get the Timer App on Zoom for Chromebook?

It does not seem like its possible. I did some research and it seems like its closer to the mobile/web version so no app support sadly.

Hello community members!

Please note that the Zoom Timer App requires the Zoom desktop app to function properly. Unfortunately, Chromebooks are not compatible with this feature, as the Zoom desktop app is not supported on ChromeOS.

If you're using a Chromebook, we recommend accessing Zoom through supported devices (such as Windows or macOS) to take full advantage of the Timer App and other desktop-exclusive features.

Thank you for your understanding.

I wish I knew that beforehand. I bought this chromebook because it meets all of zooms recommended system requirements. I didnt see anything that indicated the functionality would not be up to par.
