How can I block Zoom's Note-taking pop-up?

Recently, Zoom’s Note-taking has popped up on my Mac each time I use Siri to place a call on my iPhone – see the attached screenshot.

I’ve not found a setting to block this pop-up.

      Where have you looked ​@WardClark ?

      It seems more like an Apple Setting than a Zoom setting where you need to look. The screenshot seems to show like you are making the call from the Mac, or at least controlling the iPhone from the Mac so I would look there if you haven't yet.

      • Calling/Controlling a call from another Device (apple setting).
      • Making Zoom Notes the default Notes application (apple setting ?)

      It’s not.  I get it on my not-Apple desktop as well, and am also keenly interested in getting rid of it.

      I see.

      I don't have the means to replicate this with a Mac; you can always do a quick test by disabled Zoom Tasks in Zoom's Portal to verify if you still get the same behavior, trying to figuring what is the connection. Also you could try checking the individual settings of AI Companion related to tasks

      https://zoom.us > Personal > Settings > AI Companion > AI Companion:   Try disabling everything that is “Automatic”
      https://zoom.us > Personal > Settings > AI Companion > Tasks:  Here you can disable Zoom Tasks completely

      Let me know how it goes.

        I am also tired of this pop-up on my Windows PC.  It is very hard to manage the Zoom interface when changes like this conspire to slow us down.

        ​@WardClark ​@Jason Farrell ​@G Eric Moorhouse I see the same pop-up on my Windows 11 computer.

        I’ve gone into my Zoom's Portal and turned off the following individual settings related to notes.

        https://zoom.us > Personal > Settings > Notes > General > Enable my Notes:   Disabling this disables all Note related icons and pop-ups in my Zoom meetings.

        Posted on April 20th, 2026. On Windows 11 and my business account. Zoom Version 7.0.2 (34412).

          Thanks.  I have no idea how I didn’t find that before, but I’ve turned that off now and I didn’t get the pop-up.

            With an assist from earlier comments & Claude, I was able to disable the Zoom Notes pop-up in my Basic account on macOS Safari:

            https://www.zoom.com/ > Sign In >  left navigation menu > My Account > Settings > Notes (top tab bar) > General > Enable My notes
