Basic plan - choose a new host prior to the start of the meeting

Question - I have a basic plan and I am wondering if I can change the host to another user prior to the start of the meeting?  That person would also be on a basic plan.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @lizzybear.

 

The basic answer (sorry for the pun) is no.  But if this is someone you trust, and you don't need to do this frequently, you can use the Host Key method to allow someone else to take Host privileges upon entering a meeting which has no Waiting Room and also has Join Before Host enabled:
