Recuring meeting rooms no "no fixed time" option anymore

Hello,  I have often used recurring meetings as a way to meet with people at a non-specific time or date. We both have the link and it is saved in my recurring meetings. But now when trying to make a new one it only seems to allow me to do it if i set a time and date. I used to be able to indicate there is no fixed time or date, but that feature seems to be gone. How do I remove date and time details? Is this feature gone in order to get people to now pay for the additional Zoom Room feature? This is very frustrating as that would mean that Zoom literally downgraded the features on my plan. I am all for adding features to entice me but making the product worse when I already have a paid subscription is not ethical. Please advise and restore faith and respect with Zoom. Thanks

Talked to support with Zoom on this. If you go online for web zoom you can still remove the date and time under recurence. But on app its not an option. Per Zoom support agent "We have a recent bug regarding scheduling a recurring meeting using the application. That is why it was removed for the meantime". They could give no promises about timing for return but the online work around is good. Hopefully they will not remove from online as well. For me I am going to pre-create some meetings. But for you I know that is more challenging since you cant share the url with other patients so they cant overlap. Hopefully the online option helps.

I, too, am VERY frustrated with this new development. As a therapist I have need for multiple recurring, NO FIXED TIME meetings set up. Please restore this function soon! Thanks.

It is very frustrating, if they check these threads, they should please correct this update. It was one of the critical reasons I selected Zoom as a healthcare provider.

I am having this same issue and do not see the option to remove the date and time, so I think they must have removed the online option as well. Zoom please fix this ASAP.

Agreed - please fix this, Zoom.  Ruining my scheduling capabilities.

I have several recurring meetings at no fixed time. They do not appear in my current meetings list. I must look at previous meetings from the past. I'm not seeing how to start one of these recurring meetings. I can edit or delete, but not start (because they are past instances, not ones waiting to be started?) I found that by copying the ID, I could join that meeting with the ID.  This is too complex. I want the recurring meetings with no scheduled times to appear on my list of current meetings to start. I should note, that there was such a meeting that I found in the previous meetings list and somehow started it. Thereafter it has appeared in my current meetings.
