An option to DISABLE Zoom Workplace window: it clutters the workspace and duplicates calendar apps.

As stated: I need an option to disable the window for Zoom Workplace, hide it to never popup. 

 

Currently the Zoom Workplace window popups up each time I join a meeting. As a result, I need to alt+tab (cmd+tab on MacOS) through additonal window which I hardly ever use. 

 

Zoom workplace has nice features but all or most of them are mirrored in Google Calendar plugin and status bar icon on MacOS, so at this point it just cluttering my workspace. 

 

Since MacOS alt tab sucks badly and does not allow for switching through many windows of the same app I have to first hide the Zoom Workplace window to declutter the workspace so I can quickly switch between my Zoom Meeting and other apps. 

 

I'm a pro user, which means I have several meetings per day, sometimes per HOURS and it drives me NUTS.

 

A temp solution is to hide / minimize the window once in a while.

This workplace + calendar window may be helpful for some users, but it is incredibly disruptive. I never look at this – it pops up and stays up and it can't be disabled. It's unfortunate that my company uses Zoom, as I would not choose to use this app because of this disruptive useless window. +10 to Pro-user, I have this same experience: "

Please add a setting to disable this panel from opening

Not only that, but when I search for any way to change any setting in Zoom it is a nightmare. I waste 20 min+ looking for any type of relevant documentation, and it usually turns out that the information is (1) not relevant, (2) not current, (3) non-existent

Sitting in that frustrating loop right now dspo2025! Are there no answers out there?

Unnecessary window FORCED upon us users, without consultation, and no way to stop it from wasting our time!! 

What a blatant bloodless coup to make us switch to MS Teams!
