We use Zoom Chat as our company’s primary internal communication tool. I’d love the ability to reply to messages directly from a notification in iOS.

When a notification comes in, I have to open the Zoom app to view the entire message and reply to it. It’s even cut off by a wide margin in the notification itself.

By comparison, if a Slack notification comes in, I can view the entire message and reply directly without having to open the app.

Hello,

I'm experiencing multiple issues trying to set up my Logitech Rally Bar without a Logitech Tap controller.

1. Zoom Rooms:
   I downloaded the Zoom Rooms Controller app on my iPad and entered the pairing code shown on the Rally Bar, but the code is always marked as invalid. My organization has a Zoom license, but I’m not sure if it’s the right type.
   ➤ Do I need a specific Zoom Rooms license for this to work?

2. Microsoft Teams Rooms:
   When trying to connect, the system tells me that “your current license is not supported by this device.”
   ➤ Does Teams Rooms require a special Microsoft 365 license?

3. Google Meet:
   The Rally Bar says:
   “A touch controller isn’t paired to this device. Tap the gear icon to open Settings. Press & hold the Bluetooth button on the back of the device for 5 seconds and then pair the device in Settings.”
   ➤ Can I use an iPad or any other tablet instead of the Logitech Tap controller? Or is the original Tap required for Google Meet?

Overall, my questions are:

• Do I need special licenses (Zoom Rooms / Microsoft Teams Rooms) to use the Rally Bar with these platforms?

• Can I use an iPad as a controller instead of the Logitech Tap?

• Is it possible to set up and control the Rally Bar fully without the original Tap controller?WHAT IS THE PROBLEM ?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,

Is it possible to forward messages written in a group chat or channel to the member's registered email addresses? 

At times, users do not see the messages in the chats and it would be a very good feature to send a reminder to users via email to check the chat/channel for any unnoticed activity...

Thanks

Is there any workaround to get the notifications of team or direct DMs in both the devices that I'm logged in to (in my case, laptop and mobile)? Currently I'm getting only the most recent logged-in device. But if there's any workaround to have it on multiple devices, then I can always stay connected with the messages that I get.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to bring up a frustrating issue I've been experiencing with the Zoom Workplace Android client. Currently, it doesn't seem possible to directly reply to incoming direct messages or channel messages from the phone's notifications.

This limitation feels particularly noticeable because almost all other major messaging platforms I use, such as Skype, Microsoft Teams, Slack, WhatsApp, and Messenger, offer the ability to reply directly from Android notifications. This allows for quick responses without needing to open the full app.

The inability to reply from the phone notification has a knock-on effect for smartwatch users, like myself (using a Garmin). Because the reply action isn't available on the phone notification, that functionality is also absent on the smartwatch. 

Has anyone else encountered this? Is this a known limitation, or is there a setting I might be missing? It would be fantastic if the development team could look into enabling direct replies from Android notifications, bringing Zoom Workplace in line with the functionality offered by other popular messaging tools. This enhancement would greatly improve the user experience, particularly for those of us who rely on smartwatches for quick communication.

Thanks for your time and attention to this!

I can't stand Team Chat.Ideally, I'd be able to disable Team Chat entirely—my team and I have absolutely no use for it, and I've gone as far as requesting nobody comment during meetings in the in-meeting chat to avoid further notifications.

At the very least, I want to at least turn off the red notification bubble on the dock icon—I have enough already that are actually important, and having 99+ notifications on the Zoom icon is really not helpful.

The only solution I've found is signing out entirely, which is annoying due to the NEW "You are chatting as a guest" notification which blocks the first messages in the in-meeting chat. (attached)

Would love a solution to this—I am frustrated beyond belief by this new "feature". Please stop fixing things that are not broken.
