Programs and apps for video calls and online conferences are becoming increasingly popular. Suitable for use by both individuals and companies is the free program Zoom. Read here how Zoom works.

How Zoom works on computer and mobile device

Zoom is a software for holding phone and video conferences. The basic functions of Zoom can be used free of charge and registration is not mandatory. Zoom is available both as a program for the computer and as an app for all Android and iOS devices.

1. To use Zoom on a Mac or Windows PC, first click on the blue registration button on the Zoom website, enter your e-mail address and confirm the link you receive by e-mail.
2. Then download the Zoom desktop client to your computer and set it up by entering the required data.
3. To use Zoom on your smartphone or tablet, download and install the corresponding app from the Google Play Store or the App Store.
4. Then launch the app and join a meeting or register with Zoom to create your own meetings.

These are the limitations of Zoom

Even though the use of Zoom is basically free, not all features of the program are available to you in the basic function. For example, not only is the number of participants in a conference limited to 100, but also its duration. This may last a maximum of 40 minutes with more than two people.
