Hi there, slowyl losing the will to live.

I'm trying to schedule a Zoom meeting for a 9.45 slot but Zoom won't let me - is this doable?

Cheers!

Yes, it is possible, but you have to manually type in that exact time and then select that time in the drop-down (yes, I know that sounds ridiculous)

Keep in mind, you can schedule the Zoom meeting for 9:30 or 10:00 and just start it when you want.

Tried your suggestion but unfortunately, when I type in 9:15 it overrides it to 9:30?! It will not allow me to choose any time but the drop-down options?! Any suggestions? Thank you

You need to type in the exact time if scheduling within Zoom. You can also schedule the Zoom meeting outside Zoom using a calendar system or a Zoom app such as Salepager that lets you select 15 minute increments by default.

The Zoom app (on Mac anyway) seems to have broken the ability to schedule meetings using anything except on the hour or half hour. But you can login to their website and schedule it there and still schedule quarter hour times. PITA, but it works.

Actually, you can't do it on the website either (at least not at this date in Feb.2024). Super frustrating.

I start my meetings 15 minutes early at half past the hour so they start by quarter of. I put the start time in the meeting title. Hope you can make it work for you.
