We’ve all had that one time when we desperately needed to record a Zoom meeting. Often, you search the app while on the call but wind up with nothing. Well, as always, we’ve brought you a quick fix. Brace yourself up, let’s show you how to record a Zoom meeting.
The need to record a Zoom meeting might arise from several reasons.
It could be you trying to catch your friend’s vows on a Zoom wedding.
Has that happened to you before? No?
What about an informative webinar you were hoping to visit later? Now that should sound familiar.
A more frequent case is when you’re on a long Zoom meeting.
It can be impossible to follow through on the conversation, and recording will come in handy.
You even get to extend your good graces by sharing the video with the group after.
One question, though. Who can record a Zoom meeting?
By default, the meeting host is the only person allowed to record the meeting, but they can grant other users access.
If you want to be able to allow participants to record meetings, you’ll have to edit your settings.
Here’s what you should do;
You’ll see the recording settings with two options; CLOUD RECORDINGS and LOCAL RECORDINGS.
Once SETTINGS is opened, you’ll see the recordings option on your screen.
Only licensed users can do cloud recordings, but local recordings are free.
Once a participant is granted access, they will then be able to record the meeting.
To record a Zoom meeting on desktop, either as a host or participant, follow these steps:
The button won’t appear if you’re a participant without recording permission.
The video will be saved to your computer and can be shared anyhow you want.
The process for recording a Zoom meeting on both an iPhone and android phone is similar.
Here’s how to go about it:
NOTE: You cannot record locally on an iOS or Android device. Local recording is only supported on the desktop app. Mobile devices need licensed Zoom accounts to record.
You can also choose to switch between the following options;
You’re in a webinar as a participant, and you want to record the meeting so you can check it out later.
I mean, it’s rather uncomfortable having to ask the host for permission, so there has to be another way.
Sad to break it to you fam, but it’s impossible to record a Zoom meeting without permission. Asking the host to let you is the only way.
If you want to record a Zoom meeting as a guest, the process is still the same. You’ll have to request permission to do so.
Once you have permission, the steps are pretty much the same as we mentioned earlier.
You’ll also see the option to delete or open the file location in file explorer for Windows or Finder for Mac.
As soon as you know how to record a Zoom meeting, you can snooze while you’re at that webinar 🌚. You no longer have to try to frantically take notes while you miss important points. The recording will be available to watch whenever you have the time.
