Good morning! First post here. It is sort of a "feature request" but also a pole to see if this is a need others can see.
So, a lot of us use Zoom in professional environments where everyone is tech-savvy and this platform is a tool of the trade. I think we take for granted how much of the workflow has become unconsciously intuitive, like driving a car.
But then there are common use-cases where most participants are very non-technical. A Zoom family reunion. A wedding. A funeral. A church group meeting. A community volunteer group. A local townhall meeting. Etc,
Uncle Bob has to call someone for help if he accidentally changes his TV to HDMI 1 instead of 2. Mom and Dad use flip phones because smartphones are too hard. Billy has a mental disability is just learning to read and write after being homeless for several years.
For these individuals, the more features and buttons and options they are presented with in the Zoom interface, the less usable it becomes for them. Then, once they finally become proficient-enough to use what they need, there is a Zoom product update, and everything moves around.
Here is what would be great: A VERY SIMPLE interface that DOESN'T CHANGE, looks the same on ANY DEVICE, and has only the most COMMON features one would need to participate in a small, non-professional meeting. Is this a thing that could be done?
