Zoom US App for iPhone ZOOM Cloud Meetings

Virtual teleconferencing tools like Zoom help you stay connected to your workplace or classroom wherever you are. If you don't have access to your laptop, you can even use your phone to video chat. Here's how to use the Zoom app on your iPhone so you can tune into your next meeting while you're on-the-go.

To get started, you'll need to download the Zoom Cloud Meeting app, which is available for iOS. Once you've got the app, you can either sign into your Zoom account or join a meeting without signing in. If you've decided to sign in, simply tap Meet & Chat on the main bar, and you'll be able to select from various features: New Meeting, Join, Schedule, or Share Screen. By tapping New Meeting, you can instantly start a new video conference using your Zoom Personal Meeting ID. If you select Join, you'll be able to join a call using the Meeting ID.

What is Zoom US app

Zoom is a cloud-based video conferencing service you can use to virtually meet with others - either by video or audio-only or both, all while conducting live chats - and it lets you record those sessions to view later. Over half of Fortune 500 companies reportedly used Zoom in 2019.

When people are talking about Zoom, you'll usually hear the following phrases: Zoom Meeting and Zoom Room. A Zoom Meeting refers to a video conferencing meeting that's hosted using Zoom. You can join these meetings via a webcam or phone. Meanwhile, a Zoom Room is the physical hardware setup that lets companies schedule and launch Zoom Meetings from their conference rooms.

Zoom Rooms require an additional subscription on top of a Zoom subscription and are an ideal solution for larger companies

Here are Zoom's core features:

One-on-one meetings: Host unlimited one-on-one meetings even with the free plan.
Group video conferences: Host up to 500 participants (if you purchase the "large meeting" add-on). The free plan, however, allows you to host video conferences of up to 40 minutes and up to 100 participants.
Screen sharing: Meet one-on-one or with large groups and share your screen with them so they can see what you see.

How to Download Zoom app

The desktop app is available for Windows and macOS, while the mobile app is available for Android and iOS.

All the apps let you join a meeting without signing in, but also let you sign in using a Zoom account, Google, Facebook, or SSO. From there, you can start a meeting, join a meeting, share your screen in a Zoom Room by entering the meeting ID, start Zoom Meetings, mute/unmute your mic, start/stop the video, invite others to the meeting, change your screen name, do in-meeting chat, and start a cloud recording.

If you're a desktop user, you can also start a local recording, create polls, broadcast your Facebook live on Facebook, and more. In other words, the desktop app is more fully featured, although, if you're a free user, you can still get a lot of mileage from the mobile app.
