Hello,

 

There are no plans that allow recording to your phone’s storage. It’s not a feature of Zoom.

 

if you have a paid account your phone can start a cloud recording.

 

Prerequisites for local recordings

  • Basic (Free) account or above
  • Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux: Global minimum version or higher

Note: Local recording is not supported on iOS, iPad, or Android devices. See cloud recording for paid accounts if you are using a mobile device.

@Frank_TB  thanks for your reply but that is incorrect. 

When I had the paid plan, I was able to record on phone storage before.
