Effective January 9th, 2026 through January 22nd, 2026: The Zoom Community is currently in read-only mode with login disabled, to deliver you a new and improved community experience!

The site is still accessible to view, however, the ability to login, create content, or access your community account is temporarily unavailable. We appreciate your patience during this time. If seeking support, please browse existing community content or ask our Zoom Virtual Agent.

Basic plan- Is there any feature that allows you to join a meeting without the host starting it?

The answer is yes - as long as the host has enabled the 'Allow participants to join before host' option in the Settings > Schedule Meeting section of the web portal.
