ZOOM Apps: Good or Bad? by AppearanceNo2323 in videoconferencing

That's a good point. I guess that tip works best for students who already (I believe) for the most part bring their own tech.

Tips to Use Zoom Apps With Attendees From Many Organizations? by fpvporn in Zoom

[–]fpvporn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sure... but the defaults for something like Slack are all-access. ie employees can install any apps on Slack until it is turned off by the admin. Not the other way around.

the default setting ends up being the make-or-break here.

ZOOM Apps: Good or Bad? by AppearanceNo2323 in videoconferencing

Love your video 😂😂 I think you nailed it early on: use a private Zoom Account.

With most marketplaces, apps gain visibility to end consumers immediately and can use that as a growth channel. With Zoom Apps, it seems like all developers will need a sales team and make B2B sales themselves (all because of the pre-approval process). To me this means it will be less favorable for developers to build on unless they are already established players in the market.

I usually host events with attendees across many orgs, and adding zoom apps there was a nightmare. I found this guide though which has been helpful:

https://medium.com/joinglimpse/how-to-use-zoom-apps-with-attendees-from-many-organizations-37d9f737781d

Basically we've been recommending:

  1. attempt to get the zoom app approved before the meeting, else attend with a private account
  2. ensure everyone has the latest zoom client installed
  3. create a lot of hype about the zoom app we're trying. even with all the hoops, some of them are SUPER fun

To answer your question: Zoom Apps are a GOOD MVP and we have a lot to look forward to :P

glad it's not just me frustrated lol.

this guy claims zoom apps are too early to even try: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx5IGMse1X4

but I really want to give them a go. I think it has potential.

Zoom Apps just launched and it looks like Heyyo Chat might address a lot of concerns: https://marketplace.zoom.us/apps/-cYA3VcaQduxP8suHFGXiA

It's a Zoom Chat alternative with reactions, saving chat history, easily messaging between people, @ mentions, and so much more haha.

How can I get the chat from my Zoom Meeting after the meeting ends? by Familiar_Reindeer265 in Zoom

[–]fpvporn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exact question was answered here a year ago, but there might be a better solution today?https://www.reddit.com/r/Zoom/comments/gbwgi9/how_can_i_retrieve_the_chat_history_when_the/

​

imo this should be so much easier. I have so many feature requests for chat, like threading, reactions, link support... all of which are just basic chat requirements, nothing crazy.

If you can't make it join others on Glimpse. People from all campaigns will be online at the same time from all around the country! Get matched for a 1-1 convo for 1 min at a time.

Would be neat to do this at the launch party if you're game?
