Want to attend that virtual yoga or that Zoom happy hour next Friday? You’ll have to upgrade your Zoom app to do so.

  • Enable/disable in-meeting chat
  • Remove a participant
  • Report a participant

And more. To ensure that your virtual world continues to function smoothly, update your apps ASAP. Be sure to test them out before jumping on a call.
