Changes to existing featuresGeneral features
- Back, Forward and History button to support navigation to additional product area tabs
The Zoom Workplace app’s Back, Forward, and History buttons that initially supported Team Chat are expanded to support navigation to additional product area tabs such as Calendar, Contacts, Clips, Whiteboards, and other products available from the More menu.Meeting/webinar features
- Synchronized presence from Zoom to Microsoft
When configured and enabled by their account owner or admins, users can seamlessly synchronize their presence from Zoom to Microsoft, maintaining a consistent representation across both platforms. Users can trigger manual presence changes through their Zoom app. Actions such as making a call or joining a Zoom Meeting will also change a user's presence which will then be pushed and reflected in Microsoft 365 with this capability enabled. This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on the External Presence Service, currently scheduled for June 28, 2024.- Enhanced ability to report application problems within the Zoom Workplace app
When a user clicks on Report problem, they can easily select the type of problem they would like to report and now have an option to include an attachment and capture a screenshot. Log files are now included with submissions by default (but can be excluded by a user). Diagnostic memory logs are now saved in encrypted form in both local storage and memory and are limited to 3 files that are 20 MB maximum in size each.- AI video features on NPU
The Zoom Workplace app for Windows is transitioning AI-related video features to run on the Neural Processing Unit (NPU), specifically for virtual background and portrait lighting. This aims to provide users with extended battery life and reduced CPU load. This is applicable to Windows machines with Intel Meteor Lake and Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite & Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus processors.- Zoom app ability to update while application is not running
To provide a more seamless meeting experience, reducing disruptions and missed call minutes caused by forced updates before joining a meeting, the Zoom desktop app for Windows (.exe package) can push version upgrades while the app is not running for users with auto updates enabled.Meeting features

Zoom is updating the labeling of recording options, from Local Recordings to Computer Recordings, to clearly differentiate between recordings stored on a user's computer and those stored in Zoom cloud. This change aims to improve clarity and simplify the selection of recording options across Zoom's app and web settings, enhancing the overall user experience with Zoom's recording features.Webinar features
- Multi-share - View newest share tab
The Multi-Share feature allows participants to share multiple content items and types simultaneously in a meeting. This capability benefits users by organizing each shared item into tabs, making it easier to follow along with the meeting activities. With the latest enhancement to this feature, participants can be directed to the newest share tab so they stay up-to-date with the meeting's flow.- Enhancements to in-meeting multi-share
When using Multi-Share during meetings, users will be able to see all of the shares including shares from iPad/iPhone, second camera, and shared video files in the tabbed meeting experience. Additionally, new modals will inform users about Multi-Share when sharing restrictions occur, prompting them to enable the feature or request its enablement from the host so hosts and participants are aware of Multi-Share's availability, allowing for enhanced sharing and collaboration during meetings.- Don't Show This Again option for meeting disclaimer prompts
Zoom introduces a Don't show this again option for common in-meeting disclaimer prompts: Meeting recording (including Meeting recording shared with Zoom Revenue Accelerator), AI Companion, Livestreaming, and durable captions. This feature only affects internal meetings. This feature will not appear for disclaimers that have been set up with a custom disclaimer. Controllable by admins at the Account and Group levels, this feature allows users to avoid repeated prompts in future internal meetings after acknowledging them once. Admins can disable this feature if they prefer users to acknowledge each prompt, and users can reset their preferences from the Web portal settings.- Enhanced visual effects and background controls
Zoom is enhancing the Meetings experience by consolidating visual effect settings, making it easier for users to adjust their video appearance and backgrounds. Now, users can adjust lighting, add background blurs, virtual backgrounds, and more from one place.Team Chat features
- View main stage in Backstage before webinar starts for attendees
Hosts and panelists can view the main stage in Zoom Webinar Backstage even when the webinar is not yet open for attendees. The Live Feed preview will display what's happening on the main stage instead of showing an Off Air message. This enhancement allows hosts and panelists to practice and familiarize themselves with the Backstage experience before attendees join.- Enhanced control: Adjusting webinar resources directly during scheduling
Zoom now enables webinar hosts to manage and adjust the status of webinar resources directly during the scheduling process. This feature allows hosts to enable or disable specific items as needed before the webinar begins.- Enhancing webinar security: Introducing reporting feature for hosts and panelists
Zoom is introducing a reporting feature in webinars, allowing hosts and panelists to report instances of abuse directly from the webinar interface. This feature aims to replicate the reporting functionality currently available in meetings, providing permissions for hosts and panelists to report participants and for hosts to remove them from the webinar.Mail and Calendar features
- Support 250,000 members in Announcement channels
Announcement channels in Team Chat now support up to 250,000 members, enhancing scalability for larger communities. Users can actively participate in these channels by using features like reactions, responses, and tagging, promoting effective communication and collaboration.- Enhancements to draft limit in Team Chat
The draft limit in Team Chat has been increased from 100 to 300. To accommodate this change, the Drafts tab has been renamed to Drafts and Sent for all users. As users approach the new 300 draft limit, a warning message will appear, encouraging them to clear up storage in the Drafts and Sent section to continue saving new drafts. This enhancement offers users greater flexibility in managing their draft messages and sent items within the integrated messaging platform.- Enhancements to custom emojis
Custom emoji sorting has been improved based on emojis added by the user and the most popular emojis. Additionally, hovering over a reaction or emoji will display its name and a larger view of the emoji, enhancing discoverability. Users can also copy and paste custom emojis within Team Chat, facilitating seamless communication.- Improved message editing capabilities for adding images, files, and text
Users can edit any message, including those containing only images or files, and add or modify the text content. They can also add images or files to messages that were initially sent without attachments. This feature allows users to enhance their communications by providing additional context or supplementary information after the initial message has been sent, streamlining the messaging experience.- Simplified one-to-one chat invitations with external users
Users can initiate a 1:1 chat with an external user by entering their email address. The system will prompt the user that this is a contact request and will be sent as an email invitation as well as an in-client notification. Invitees can accept or decline the invitation from the client after signing in or signing up. If accepted, a 1:1 chat is created with the inviter's message populated. This provides a clear and safe way to invite and communicate with external users in a 1:1 chat. The invitation will expire after 30 days. This feature will not be immediately available, as it is dependent on a backend release, currently scheduled for June 20, 2024.- Expanded GIPHY search and display capabilities in Zoom Team Chat
Users can now view up to 30 GIF search results from GIPHY within the Zoom Team Chat app. The search results load incrementally as the user types their query, providing a more dynamic and responsive experience.- Enhancements to forward message feature
The message forwarding experience in Zoom Team Chat has been improved. Share message will be replaced with Forward message in multiple locations:
- Within the More menu associated with the message bubble
- In the title of the share/forward pop-up modal
- On the call-to-action button within the modal
- On the share/forward card displayed when the message is forwarded, along with its corresponding icon. Share message will be substituted with Forward/Forwarded message in these instances.
Additionally, to ensure consistency across mobile and desktop versions, two buttons, Share separately and Create group chat, will be included in the share modal on desktop. Previously, these buttons were only accessible on mobile devices. This modification is intended to harmonize the functionality between the desktop and mobile versions of the feature.Phone features
- Option to fade past events in calendar
Using the Reduce the brightness of past events option, users can fade past calendar events to easily differentiate them from upcoming ones.- Event loading status screen
When accessing the Calendar tab, users will see a loading screen when their calendar events take a while to load and render. This enhancement helps users understand the loading process and improves the overall experience.- Enhanced call to action for first-time calendar users
First time calendar users will see clear call-to-actions to connect mail and calendar services.- Propose new time entry point from Zoom Workplace app to Google Calendar
Users can now propose new meeting times directly within their Zoom Workplace app, eliminating the need to switch between Google Calendar and Zoom interfaces.- Customizable week start day in calendar settings
Users can choose their preferred start day for the week , Saturday, Sunday, or Monday, within their calendar settings. This feature accommodates users' preferences for organizing and viewing weekly schedules more conveniently.- Collapsible All day events in calendar display
Users can collapse all-day events by default when there are more than three per day, improving the user interface by reducing clutter.- Ability to configure working hours and location
Users can set and manage their working hours and location schedules in Zoom, automatically updating their availability status and calendar events.- Additional event types - out of office and working location
Users can add more event types such as Out of Office and Working Location. They can switch between these event types easily by clicking different sub-tabs on the scheduling interface.- Enhanced mail client interface for desktop
The Zoom mail client has been redesigned for a more intuitive and efficient desktop experience.- Toggle End-to-End encryption (E2EE) for individual messages and emails
Users can toggle between full End-to-End encryption (E2EE) and plain text at each message or email level. In the email compose window, they will see an encryption icon to enable E2EE for each outbound email.Contact Center features
- Introducing voicemail transcription general availability
The voicemail transcription feature is generally available for additional languages, including French (Canadian), Spanish, Portuguese, and German. The default setting is English.- Expanded language support for voicemail and videomail transcription
Users can select additional languages for voicemail and videomail transcription, including Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), French (France), Italian, Japanese, Korean, Russian, and Spanish (EU). Users can set their default transcription language for voicemail, videomail, and call recording transcriptions in the Zoom Workplace app. This feature must be enabled by Zoom.- Outbound SMS spam prevention
There are several enhancements to spam prevention rules for outbound SMS messages. When duplicated SMS messages are sent on the Zoom desktop or mobile app, users will receive a risk notice that they must acknowledge. Phone numbers reported for spam are classified into risk categories, and appropriate actions are taken, such as sending notifications, reducing SMS limits, or suspending SMS capability. This feature ensures compliance with messaging best practices.- Support for multiple languages for voice call summary
Users can select from a wider range of languages for the voice call summary feature, including Chinese (Traditional), Chinese (Simplified), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Spanish. The feature also includes language identification, automatically detecting language transitions during calls to ensure accurate transcription. This feature must be enabled by Zoom.- Post-quantum end-to-end encryption support for Zoom Phone
Users can enable post-quantum end-to-end encryption (PQ-E2EE) for Zoom Phone calls. When enabled, users are notified that their call is "Post quantum end-to-end encrypted". As users update their Zoom desktop and mobile app to version 6.1.0 or higher, all end-to-end encrypted calls will start leveraging our latest post-quantum end-to-end encryption protocol. If PQ E2EE is unsupported by any participant's device, the call will default to standard end-to-end encryption (E2EE) when enabled. PQ E2EE in Zoom Phone is designed to withstand the threat of an adversary who can capture encrypted network traffic, hoping to acquire a quantum computer in the future and use it to decrypt the captured data. PQ E2EE offers the same security property as standard end-to-end encryption (E2EE), namely that the call is encrypted using cryptographic keys known only to the devices of the caller and receiver.Resolved issues
- Visibility into agent queue and engagement outcome
Admins can access the assigned agent queue name and disposition for an engagement through new global variables. The global_system.Engagement.queue variable provides the queue name of the agent assigned to the engagement, which updates if the agent changes. The global_system.Engagement.disposition variable shows the disposition selected by the agent or system for the engagement. These read-only variables are accessible in flows, allowing admins to utilize this engagement data in widgets or scripts.
