In the past year or so, Zoom keeps making changes that make the entire experience terrible and more laborious. Commonly used features are being put behind multiple steps. At least give us the options to revert to how it was or to edit things?
1 - No "End Meeting" button anymore from Meeting Controls whilst screen sharing, you have to click on "Show Meeting" first (or end the screen share) in order to see the option
2 - Screen sharing options now on 3rd "Advanced" tab
3 - Screen sharing via AirPlay no longer works. The "Zoom-device-name" item doesn't show up. I have "AirPlay Receiver" switched off as suggested by Zoom Support. I tried again after switching it back on to see if that worked but it didn't.
Why is Zoom determined to make life harder and more complicated?
For issues 1 and 2, there's nothing I can do because Zoom have made the changes in their apps and I've scoured all possible settings but there's no option to move stuff around for those specific things.
For issue number 3, I've tried:
The Zoom app is up to date on my devices.
My devices have the latest firmware running.
I've tried on multiple devices and instances of Zoom.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Zoom.
I've tried restoring my Macs and also my iPads from factory default.
