This is a pain, can't message anyone can't even get to my colleagues. Just because I'm a basic user? Come on Zoom! You can't do this to free accounts 😞 Please reply and help me find a solution PLEASE! Am very sad 😞

Easy, buy a license or have all your users switch to something else like Facebook messenger

@Dylan Are you the owner of a Basic account, or a Basic user on a larger paid account? If you're a Basic user on a paid account, it could be that your account admin disabled the use of chat for you and others.

@Bort Yes, I am indeed the owner of the account. Chat is still not there after the "august 12th update" 😞

Hey @Dylan, just ensure that this is enabled here and the permissions are correctly set.
Also, after enabling or if it was already enabled, its also enabled here
Should see something like this in your settings.

That is not my problem/issue. I cannot access the Zoom chat function on the App's home interface. Please refer to the attachment.

By doing this steps you will be able to update latest version.
- Sign in to Zoom desktop client.
- Click your profile picture then click Check for Updates.
If there is a newer version, Zoom will download and install it.

My problem occurred before the last update, this is the second time I've updated the Zoom application, but I'll give it a try anyway. Hope this works...

Me: am so sad, I cannot even message anyone I have added on Zoom.
Zoom: hmm... we'll try to fix that for you right after I do something else...
Me: dies of disappointment unexpectedly...
Zoom: okay... we're all done... now what was it you wanted us to do for you again?
Me: 😶

For me the same - no chat in Tab "Chat" in main app window; zoom client 5.8.0.16 on linux, installed via snap. This happened since the snap was upgraded 3 days ago 😞
I'm a basic user on a paid larger account.

At least for me it seems to be an issue with the snap package of zoom: https://github.com/ogra1/zoom-snap/issues/91
