Zoom has emerged as a crucial communication tool amidst the pandemic. Nevertheless, not everyone can access or chooses to use the app. Thankfully, it’s possible to participate in a Zoom meeting without having to download the app. Below are the instructions to do so:
Step 1: Open Your Browser
The first step is to open your web browser. You can use any browser such as Chrome, Firefox, or Safari. Once you have opened your browser, go to the Zoom website at zoom.us.
Step 2: Enter the Meeting ID
On the Zoom website, you will see a box where you can enter the meeting ID. This is the unique code that identifies the meeting you want to join. You should have received this code from the host of the meeting or in an email invitation.
Step 3: Enter Your Name
After entering the meeting ID, you will be prompted to enter your name. This is how you will be identified in the meeting. You can use your real name or a pseudonym if you prefer.
Step 4: Join the Meeting
Once you have entered your name, click on the “Join” button to join the meeting. You may be prompted to allow Zoom to access your microphone and camera. If you want to participate in the meeting, you will need to grant permission.
Step 5: Participate in the Meeting
Once you have joined the meeting, you can participate in the conversation by speaking, sharing your screen, or using the chat feature. You can also mute yourself if you don’t want to be heard or turn off your camera if you don’t want to be seen.
Conclusion
Calling into a Zoom meeting without the app is easy and convenient. By following these steps, you can join any Zoom meeting from your web browser without downloading the app. Remember to enter the meeting ID and your name before joining the meeting.
