Zoom by phone - how to join the meeting

From virtual parties to business meetings, everyone is talking about the popular video conferencing tool Zoom. Using your PC or smartphone, you can arrange to have a video call with friends or colleagues in no time at all. Even with a conventional phone, you can join a Zoom meeting.

How to join a meeting in Zoom by phone

To join a Zoom meeting without a PC or smartphone, dial the phone number listed in your meeting invitation and then follow these steps:

1. After dialing in by phone, you will be prompted to enter the Zoom Meeting ID, which has between 9 and 11 digits. After entering the ID, press the # key.
2. If the meeting has not started yet, you can open it by entering the host key or press the # key and wait for it to start.
3. If you have also joined simultaneously via your computer, you must now enter the participant ID. If you only dial in by phone, skip this step by pressing the # key.
