Welcome to the Zoom Community, @Notary! To stop Zoom from automatically switching your meeting to your phone, first try signing out of the Zoom app on your phone—this usually prevents the switch entirely. If you're using a Mac and iPhone, turn off "Handoff" in your device settings to stop Apple from moving Zoom between devices. You can also log in to your Zoom profile at zoom.us/profile and check for any linked devices; remove your phone if needed to prevent automatic switching.
