Voice Control

Hello, I would like to ask,

whether it is possible to join a recurring Zoom meeting entirely by voice. It's about a blind person who can't operate the touchscreen on the iPad.
So it's not about joining a meeting that you have planned yourself, but participating as a listener in a regular event.

    Yes, you can use Siri Shortcuts to join a scheduled Zoom Meeting.

     

    Here is a Zoom Support article 

     

    Here is a YouTube video

     

    Here are some step-by-step instructions.

    Can you use siri/voice commands to end a meeting (as host) or leave a meeting?

     

    I tried creating a shortcut for leave meeting and thought I could use siri to execute it, but it appears siri isn't listening during the zoom call.  Maybe there is an option to turn that on somewhere that I missed??

    You are correct that Siri stops listening during a Zoom meeting. 

     

    However, you can create a Shortcut that executes the "Leave Meeting" action in the Zoom section.

    A touch on the screen can trigger this after you have tapped the Home or Side button to minimize Zoom

     

    To make the Shortcut more memorable on the screen, I suggest creating a widget for this shortcut on the left-most screen

    If she is able to use a Flic button, here is a rather complicated way to launch that Leave Meeting Shortcut using Flic button as a Bluetooth keyboard emulator. https://youtu.be/I8SgVyn1i08?si=e0SyzhA0LF6H7Xa-
