Why is my Zoom Video Following me and how do make it stop!

I have a new 2024 Apple M4 and downloaded the App, since doing so my camera and video keep auto focusing and zooming in and out with all movement! I need this to stop- all the help articles and reddit searches have given me suggestions for views I don't have in Zoom Workplace and I can't disable this feature. It's driving me nuts!

Hello, 

 

This is not a Zoom issue. Apple has a feature called Center Stage  that does this that you can turn off.

Wow can't thank you enough for posting the link to this Apple article! The Zoom article doesn't make it clear at all that it's something you need to turn off outside of the Zoom app. The camera has been following me everywhere for weeks, and it makes it look so unprofessional on calls - you've saved me - thank you!!

Thank you! I wish Zoom would put this in the support articles 🙂

I was facing the same issue with my zoom. After reading this thread I got my point.
