Question

Zoom only allowing users to see a month's worth of meetings at a time

Hi,

We have just logged into Zoom and noticed that we can no longer see all of our scheduled meetings at once. Instead, we have to enter a date range and only a month at a time can be selected. This is really unhelpful as we schedule numerous meetings months in advance and can often not remember the exact date so being able to scroll through all of our meetings is useful. Making us have to search through our meetings a month at a time takes what used to be a two minute task and turned it into one that can take ages, and also because this "new feature" is not widely known, we are getting bombarded with other users panicking because they think their meetings have been lost.

Is there any way to turn this terrible feature off and go back to being able to see all of our meetings?

Thank you!

From what I understand, Zoom help desk does not read nor respond to these posts. I did contact them, made them aware of the issues we are having with only viewing 30 days of meetings at a time, and even provided the link to these comments for their review. I've gotten two responses that their internal team is working on a fix.

Hello,

Although this community forum is useful, the best way to get traction on an issue is through Zoom's official feedback process.

Yes, this TOTALLY SUCKS.

#1) The calendar seems unnecessary and annoying in the first place BUT hey, maybe some people want it.

HOWEVER

#2) NOT being able to set my own date range and being limited to one month is preposterous!!!! I would have loved to be a fly on the wall in the meeting(s) where this was hatched. I am so pissed right now, I am ready to quit ZOOM and find an alternative.

AT THE VERY LEAST allow for unlimited calendar range. At most, allow users to choose whether or not to use the calendar 'feature' at all.

This is my first time in a forum and I ran out of likes in this thread in an effort to get the attention of someone who can reverse this asinine 'update'.

PLEASE EVERYONE THUMBS UP THESE POSTS!!!

this new feature is an absolute pain. I cant look at meetings ahead to see who has registered, who needs reminding, what the numbers are like etc etc. Its taking up so much time... please remove it!

Yes, please remove this. Not sure who thought that would be a good idea.

ZOOM Scheduling date range is a major pain in the butt. I schedule sometimes a year in advance and I cannot tell if the scheduled meeting is still on if it is more than one month out. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!!!

Same issue on viewing only a month's worth of scheduled meetings at a time. Super unhelpful and frustrating and makes planning an incredibly unpleasant experience. Please change it back or provide more options for viewing more than only one month at a time.

Thank you for your consideration1

Agreed! This is so problematic!! This has created hours of issues for me and my team. Who at Zoom had the terrible idea of only allowing people to see a month of scheduling at one time after years of ease of use?!! Some overzealous problem-makers at Zoom have succeeded in creating hours of unnecessary problems for their users. As Ellenslaton above and others have said "THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!!!!

All my recurring meetings are cancelled and I can not see beyond a month in my calendar. I have tried chat and all I get is a bit who takes me to a training video. I've been a customer for many years and have always found zoom easy to manage. Now it's impossible and I have spent hours trying to solve this problem. I ended up making 3 meetings for the same day but nothing. I want to leave and go to Microsoft teams but you don't refund. What are they spending all our fees on? Disgusted

Yes, I will also have to just cancel my account and move to another platform if it becomes this hard to use.

Same as everyone else - this a HUGE pain in regards to future planning in a small business that relies on participants registering for meetings down the track. It seems like it is probably some roundabout way to now make us all pay for what used to be a basic feature in the platform. Typical of these big tech companies. Please make sure you provide feedback directly to Zoom (which in itself is quite a rigmarole!) because I daresay they are not checking here in the "Community"
