How can I mute my speaker sound on iPhone?

[HappySpaceInvdr]

In some situations, I need to temporarily mute the speaker on my iPhone while in a Zoom meeting.

I've tried turning the volume all the way down using the iPhone buttons, and I've also tapped on the speaker icon at the top left of the screen, but there's still sound coming out of the speaker.  

Is this a bug in the app, or a deliberate feature, for example to avoid forgetting you're in a meeting?

Hi @HappySpaceInvdr 

I believe this is intentional as Zoom acts this way on all mobile devices - you can turn the volume down very low, but not off totally.

What you can do is Leave Audio by pressing the three-dots. That will disconnect your audio altogether - but this will be apparent to other participants.

Hi

My business case is that I am hosting a Zoom meeting on my laptop, joining the same meeting on my iPhone, sharing my iPhone screen (demonstrating using an app that has audio) and broadcasting that audio to all participants, but I don't want to hear any participants audio on the iPhone as I hear them on my laptop. Currently I hear a tiny echo from the iPhone, which is distracting.
Why can't you allow the iPhone output volume (not the microphone/mute) go to ZERO??? It goes to 5% or something low, why not 0% - LIKE ALL OTHER APPS!

Yeah If you want to turn off the sound of the iPhone speaker, the easiest way is to slide the silent switch on the side down. This puts the phone in silent mode, so there is no sound from calls, messages, or notifications. However, when playing songs or videos, their sound may still play. To turn it off, you just have to press the volume down button to turn the sound off completely. If you want, you can also go to the Control Center and drag it from the top of the screen and move the volume slider down. Sometimes, the sound of the speaker is blurry or low. In this case, cleaning the speaker with a good speaker cleaner will solve the problem. Many apps also have their own mute option, which can also be used if necessary. All in all, controlling the sound of the iPhone is a breeze!
