Forward call notifications to mobile apps when status set to “in calendar event”

We’ve noticed that Zoom notifications aren’t forwarded to mobile devices when users are in previously scheduled calendar events. Whereas notifications are forwarded while a user’s status is set to “away”, the “in calendar event” status prevents users from receiving time sensitive call/message notifications on mobile devices while the said mobile device is locked.


I've tested extensively on version 6.4.0 of the macOS app and have tested a bit on the 6.4.1 build as well.

Ideally, users would have the option in settings to forward notifications to mobile devices when the “in calendar event” status is set.


Example use cases:

  • You lock your screen before walking away from your desk, forgetting that you’ve got a meeting on the calendar. One of your meeting guests calls you on Zoom to remind you of the meeting. Moving forward, all such calls could still pop up on your mobile device.
  • You’ve got a scheduled in-person meeting back to back with a scheduled Zoom meeting. Your colleague calls you 5 minutes before the meeting in order to inform you of last minute changes relevant to the Zoom meeting. Moving forward, you would have the option to receive such calls.
