Hi!
My Zoom Desktop Client (on Windows) updated to one that has consolidated the Calendar and Meetings tabs (or so it says, feels more like it -lost- the Meetings tab) and now I can't really access cloud recordings from my desktop client. Or I just can't find them. Is there a way to go back to the old UI? Having to log into my Zoom account on my browser when I have a desktop client open just to get a cloud meeting's URL is a really bad experience.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi there @arodznegron thank you for posting for the first time, and welcome to the Zoom Community!
In your settings: https://zoom.us/profile/setting, you can disable the Merge Meetings and Calendar tabs. This will add a Meetings tab to your navigation.
Let me know if that helps!
EDITED: SEPTEMBER 20, 2024
The setting for merging the Meetings and Calendar tabs was removed from the Web portal on September 16, 2024. For Zoom Workplace app version 6.2.0 and higher, the tabs are now permanently merged to enhance visibility of calendar views and meeting details. More details on this change are available in our support article: Using the merged Meetings and Calendar tabs.

I found the setting you outlined but it didn't change what shows up in the desktop application. I have folks that need the calendar and the zoom meeting to be separate items. Please advise. Thanks!

I just lost my meetings tab on Zoom for Mac and I don't see that option in the settings.

@Khirschmann I started a new thread for this issue because I don't believe the folks who provided solutions here realize that their solution is no longer valid. Here is the thread I started today:
Merge Meetings and Calendar. I see that there are more people who are having the same issue. Feel free to go and share about your issue there.

Thank you! That works!
My feedback: not a good feature to merge them. It's good that there's the option to "unmerge" them, but as a user that spends all time in the client itself, it's a double-whammy of a negative experience:
Maybe make these changes opt-in in the future?
Anyway, thank you very much!

Great input @arodznegronI'll pass it along!

Thank you for your comment. I too was negatively effected by this change. I was able to get meetings back on the desktop by following your suggest. Thank you!

After applying the update today, my meeting tab disappeared again. I went to the web Zoom settings, and the search on "merged" resulted in "no results found". Where did the opt out of the calendar and meeting tabs go? Zoom is getting very complicated. When I started using it during the pandemic its appeal was its simplicity.

From:
https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0075226&_ga=2.163963643.55642664.1.....
If your Zoom Workplace app version is lower than 6.2.0 and you have the Merge Meetings and Calendar tabs toggle enabled prior to September 16, 2024, you will continue to see the merged Calendar and Meetings tab.
If your Zoom Workplace app version is lower than 6.2.0 and you have the Merge Meetings and Calendar tabs toggle disabled prior to September 16, 2024, you will still see separate tabs for Meetings and Calendar. Once you upgrade to version 6.2.0, the Calendar and Meetings tab will merge, and you won’t have the option to return to separate tabs.
Zoom developers: WHY??? The app is centrally about Zoom meetings, why would you drop the Meetings tab in the app??

I am with @Marty6!

Even this claim in the support article is not true: We've set this option in our profile to disabled well before September 16, even shortly after version 6 came out in spring, and the tabs remained separate up until version 6.1.11. But with version 6.2.0, the meetings tab switched to calendar view again and there isn't a separate calendar tab any more. As soon as I downgrade my client to version 6.1.11, the old meetings tab is back.
As others here have already stated, this new calendar view is a sharp drop in UX also for us, as we almost exclusively use recurring meetings without a specific date. So, normally, or calendar is empty and we'll always have to pop open that little box at the bottom of the screen to find and start a meeting. This is too difficult for most of our users and we seriously consider switching to another product if this is not fixed.

totally agree... this is confusing and stupid as you cannot see what is a zoom meeting and what is not. It's differentiated on the mobile app, why not on desktop?
