New Zoom Desktop Interface is Frustrating

Why don't yopu make the upgrade to the new Zoom interface an option the user can specify when it will take place?   The previsous interface was perfect for my needs, and when in a hurry to schedule a new meeting I am met with an interfweace that I now have to learn all over again.

 

I figured it out, but I must say I find the older interface design more lelgant and efficine.  Your giving me features I don't care about.

 

And I love Zoom... It is so much more reliable than any other video conferencing platform.

 

Just thought you should know All knowing and all wise Zoom

I agree 100%  I had to go to the web version to find my list of recurring meetings... a total pain!

Same here, where previously all your meetings were immediately visible, now they're making us work at finding them.  These changes are for changes sake, and I do not see an improvement to the user experience. Sad, because Zoom is the best platform out there.

I eventually found where to get my list of recurring meetings on the first screen that comes up... fine print at the bottom of the screen...then I had to hunt around to find the "copy link" command -- both used to come up right away when opening the previous version of Zoom.  Improvement?? not so much.....Total pain in the patootie!!!

I wholeheartedly agree. I am glad to know I am not alone. Why did they need to change it, and why did they give us no warning? It disoriented me all last week as I was opening up meetings. I'd go back to the old interface like a shot if I could.

Agree with you. -- Furthermore, I've had trouble using at least one of my previous recurring meetings links since the update, had to make a new one.  Haven't checked the others yet.....What a pain!

Leave well enough alone. The most expensive part of new software is training everybody to use it. A total redesign sprung on us at once like this upgrade is not helpful. Also the visible screen size is now reduced. Very unhelpful.

Have you heard of Zoom AI Companion?

How about a tutorial to show us how the new interface works...where things were and where they are now.
