Is there a way for the host to enable captions without subtitles automatically appearing on mobile and tablet devices?

 

Currently, when the host enables captions, desktop and laptop users can choose whether to turn them on, which works well. However, on mobile devices, subtitles appear automatically when captions are enabled.

 

This can be distracting for those who don’t need them and affects the overall user experience. As a result, some hosts in my company hesitate to enable captions to avoid complaints. However, they're receiving complaints from users who need captions. To better accommodate all participants, my company is even considering cancelling our Zoom subscription in favor of Microsoft Teams, which offers more flexibility in this area.

 

If mobile users had the same opt-in option as desktop users, hosts would be more likely to enable captions without concern about disrupting others.

 

Would it be possible for Zoom to update this setting so mobile users can choose whether to display captions, just like on desktops? This would improve the experience for everyone and encourage my company to continue using Zoom.

I have noticed you have had many people experiencing this problem and nowadays I tend to refer to google meet where I don't experience this awful issue. I closed down my background apps. I have used Zoom for years so why all of a sudden on a faster and better computer since I did some updates it started acting like a pain in the ...

Firstly, it's clearly an update problem with zoom as previously mentioned it worked fine before. 

I have tried reinstalling it and restarting my computer and all that stuff, nothing. 

Unlike google meet I like the fact zoom can allow others to access your screen but it's impossible to use nowadays.

Also, when I updated to newer version of zoom my audio quality wasn't as strong and it's difficult to hear people clearly and loudly like I us

How to set Zoom to 44.1 kHz on macOS Sequoia?

Please refer to the attached Audio MIDI Setup utility screenshots, showing that Zoom I/O cannot be reconfigured from its default 48kHz.

 

The reason for my wanting it at 44.1 kHz frequency is to prevent incompatibility with DAW settings for clients requiring their projects to run at 44.1 kHz, e.g. I cannot screenshare / audioshare Sibelius scorewriter and Cubase DAW at the same time as Zoom without compatibility flagging. Changing the frequency to 48 kHz makes the audio samples play back at a higher pitch, and can also result in a recalculation of root samples.

I recently upgraded my laptop and Zoom (V 6.3.11).  I use zoom for 1 on 1 meetings.  On my old laptop, the participant video would fill the entire contents of the window.  My video is filling it up fine, but the participant window is not.  I tried full screen, and all the video settings i could but nothing is working.  The participant never had to set anything before.  If anyone knows how to get past this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Windows 11, automatically updated to ZOOM version: 6.3.11 (60501).

Click on the audio settings in the settings, and it will be automatically turned off.

When joining a meeting, it will automatically exit and cannot join.

It turns out that the old ZOOM version is normal.

Camera switching to phone unprompted

I just posted this commented on a more general thread Problems with the Zoom update but realized my issue is specific enough to probably be a separate post.

 

Problem details
Three times during a 30 min zoom call, camera turned off without me noticing because my mic was still working normally. Each time, my iphone pinged (even on silent) and I saw a screen asking me to give permissions for my phone camera. Can't figure out why it's switching over, zoom app is not open on my phone. I am signed into the same apple account on both devices so that explains how it's switching to my phone, but not why it did it in the first place.

 

I was typing notes so maybe I pressed a button by accident that caused the switch? But I'm not aware of any shortcuts for this, I didn't know that using the mic on my laptop and the camera on my phone at the same time was even an option.

 

Troubleshooting
I am a frequent Zoom & Discord user and have never seen this before today. I tried sitting in an empty zoom meeting for the 5-10 mins I spent writing this post to see if I could replicate the issue, but I did not experience the camera switch.

 

This morning when it happened, I always noticed my camera was off after someone stopped screensharing. It might only be happening when another participant shares their screen? When someone screen shares, zoom switches to fullscreen for me, then switches back when they stop sharing. Maybe the mac camera is disconnecting during the switch and then Zoom tries the next available camera instead? I'm not actually sure if it's a zoom issue or a mac issue, I haven't updated my MacOS or iOS in a while and looks like my Zoom version is from Jan 2024.

 

Device info
Zoom version 5.17.5 (29101)
2019 Macbook Pro, macOS Ventura 13.6.1 (22G313)

iPhone SE, iOS 17.4.1

Within the past month or so, whenever I schedule a meeting and add invitees, they do not receive the email. I have to send a separate email with a Zoom link that I copied from the original. How do I fix this? It is very frustrating that people are not receiving the emails for the meeting. Please help!

Thanks,
