Keeping Zoom running in background on Ipad

Hi,

 

When using Zoom on PC we can minimize zoom and it will move a small window displaying participants into the corner of the screen and we can continue to do tasks on our PC. Is this possible on Iphone or Ipad? I would like to read webpages while still being part of a Zoom meeting, so would like for the meeting to be minimized into the corner, if that's possible.

 

Thanks.

Hi @andy3271! You can keep Zoom running in the background on your mobile devices while checking out other web pages. Feel free to check out this article here for more information 🙂

Have you heard of Zoom AI Companion?

Thanks. I've tried this, but when I do the my camera stops recording me and I can also no longer see other members of the meeting. Is it possible to view other pages while still having my camera record me? 

Hi @andy3271 

Unfortunately that is a limitation of the mobile app. There is no way I am aware of to minimize the app and stay on video.
