Does anyone know what a number in parentheses after a Zoom username means? For example iPad(5).

Thanks!

I think it means that whoever joined that meeting owns multiple iPads and they have elected to name them in sequence. Just a thought. Anybody can name themselves to iPad(5), it's not system generated.
