Hi,

I have a Zoom Phone subscription but am unable to receive SMS messages. This is a critical feature for me as I need to receive OTP codes.

I’ve also noticed that I’m not receiving callbacks from certain companies, which I suspect may be due to my IVR setup.

Could you please advise on:

1. How to enable SMS on my Zoom landline number (0161 – Manchester UK area code).

2. How to configure my IVR to allow callbacks from external numbers such as from eBay / Amazon etc.

Thank you for your help.

Hello prior to upgrading to the app version 13 when a call use to come in and i was on the other line it would display on the phone. Now it displays on the phone and this loud sound constantly till you answer the call. This leads me to not hear the people i am on the call with. How do i turn this off. 

I am a single user using zoom full time during my business day. There is no need whatsoever for 99% of my calls to ever be recorded and the prerecorded message by zoom about recording is too long, too impersonal, and scares off potential callers.

I've spent hours attempting to reset the recording options to no avail and it still is apparently recording and even if it isn't recording it's playing that stupid message every time I dial. How do I put an end to that or as a minimum record my own message referencing recording?

One of my users cannot answer calls from the lock screen on his Samsung S23. If the phone is unlocked he can answer calls just fine but when the screen is locked there's just a progress circle animation that says please wait. We tested this on a Google Pixel and there was no issue answering from the lock screen. Any insight on what may be causing his problem?

The Voicemail tab has the ability to mark messages as "unread" but the SMS tab does not. Often I get an SMS and need to check it to see if it's an emergency...and if not I want to mark it as Unread so I remember to check it again later.

Seems like a pretty standard feature...and hopefully easy to implement. Can this be added? Also hoping to get some thumbs-up here to help Zoom realize this is of value. Thanks!

I've come to terms with the fact that the SMS for Zoom is not going to work for my business and I'm looking for other options which saddens me. For starters, I can't opt-in a client manually to receive texts. Nor can I find information that explains why I can or can not. If I had a client for a long time I would prefer to indicate that they have verbally agreed to SMS if they have asked to receive information. I deal with a lot of grieving people and they hate extra steps. Some clients or new clients forget to opt-in and become a little agitated with not getting the information that they requested promptly. Then, I just had an issue where I can't send videos of my products via text, only photos. In what world does SMS not include video submissions. Maybe it's me but I would like to be able to communicate in whatever way the client needs. Furthermore, phone calls having weak singles when I'm not at my desk is troublesome. I'm begging for help.
