Reviews for Zoom for Chromebook

← Back to Zoom for Chromebook

i love zoom its a great app exspecail when the wheather is raining and its too hot outside i can get on zoom.

So far, I'm hugely disappointed. The video lags and feeezes, it doesn't remember previously used Zoom codes (like the app does on my iPhone and other Windows laptop). I haven't been able to use it enough on the Chromebook to find other issues, simply because I can't get far enough into the experience of actually using the app. Get it together, Zoom.

There's no option to contol video resolution on my Chromebook. I am in a rural area, this is a real problem.

it take a while to get signed on. Once you are sign on it very easy to use the app.

why we can't change background while using Zoom in chromebook. If any option of backgrounds and effects available for chrome book, then please let me know.

How is it PWA on my device, yet it is the only one that works with zoom meetings? Its the same as the web but in a seperate window, yet it lets me go into meetings and stuff but web doesn't??? Well atleast it works.

I'm constantly losing sound during meetings and all I see is a black box whenever anyone shares their screen (host and co-host included). Also, you must have a STRONG signal to use it because when I try to stream a TV service and connect to Zoom at the same time, Zoom starts to freeze, no one elses picture will load on my screen and I have to keep restarting the program just to have sound. I'm very disappointed because I bought a Chromebook solely for the purpose and convience of using Zoom. :-(

It works ok but I use it on my chromebook and the background feature sucks. It's just a picture with a hole in the middle where my face is shown off center and I don't have the option to just blur my background. I am not able to use the background feature at all because of these things. That is the main thing I don't like about it and makes it hard to use.

This version of Zoom PWA has multiple issues. The quality of the videos is worse than I've seen it for year. When I use it on my Chromebook the video feeds of everyone will stop and won't start again unless I sign out and sign back in, but often the audio won't work properly until I've signed out of the computer audio and sign back in. It will sometimes take me five minutes just to get everything working again. I will not be using this app until serious improvements are made.

Freezes my chromebook constantly, and has made me drop out of in progress lectures that I need to hear the information for. It also ruined the group work that I was trying to do, as I was not automatically added back to the breakroom I was assigned to and could not continue with the process as I was supposed to. Please fix this garbage app

The app for Chromebooks needs to be updated to at least the same features that are available for Android based phones. On the PWA app the backgrounds are not professional, the connection is not as great (my Wifi works perfect for other laptops at home). I'd like to see the blur option for backgrounds on PWA. I'd also like to have different ratio options for video.

Zoom is necessary for just about all my communications. I did like the old version better and the new version really drains my battery. But ultimately, as you get used to new version, you will get to like it..... Wi-Fi signal is critical for having good audio and video. So If you have issues with full band width signal, then your device is probably the issue. if you have good signal, zoom works great

Although I had previously used zoom on my chromebook without issue, I no longer can. The sound cuts in and out making it impossible for me to attend trainings or meetings. Zoom has suggestd that my wifi speed is not fast enought, but all tests indicate that I should not be having this problem and that my wifi speed is plenty fast enough. How do I fix this problem? I have paid for trainings that I am not able to effectively attend.

I really want to like Zoom on chromebooks but this still isn't working out... I'm using a pixel slate, and my camera doesn't appear. It DOES show when I'm previewing the "virtual background" (aka the circle it puts around your face) but aside from that, I have no way of getting to use my camera, either external or internal in this app. Please fix this, this is very dissapointing.

I am in Zoom meetings every day. I just got a Chromebook to use to Zoom on. I hate, hate, hate, this version. I can not switch from one device to another. (eg, going from my phone to my Chrombook or back) It also does not store any zoom numbers I use regularly so I have to manually enter the number each time I log on. Mirror image also has to be reset daily. This is so annoying I am about to take back the Chromebook.

I recently had to access Zoom on my Chromebook. However, every few seconds, it disconnects and reconnects. I downloaded the app to use it outside of the browser along with this PWA. However, issue still persists. Turns out this has been happening for some time and it appears devs have yet to fix it, instead prompting users to look into connectivity issues. However, it's never connectivity. The app simply refuses to work properly.

Piece of Junk - this app is nothing compared to what it replaced. It won't SAVE settings. So, I am having to set up video, audio, and my background before each meeting. It won't consistently let me join the video portion of the call. I got locked out of audio on one call, and I had to drop, join again, and drop computer audio. The only waay to get on was to call into the meeting. Don't waste your time with this nonsense. Use the web version, and don't bother with Zoom for Chrome - PWA

App doesn't work at all. Use the web version, instead. I don't know how you can make an app that works worse than the web version. At the very least, make the app a shell/bookmark for the web version. Sheesh. App has no sound on multiple chromebooks. Every other app has sound; this one doesn't. So you can't use it at all. Zoom corporate blames 'chromebook sound drivers.' But the web version figured it out. Every other app in the world figured it out. This is the only app that can't play sound.

Most of the time I don't have problems, that is when I have a strong Wi-Fi connection. When the Wi-Fi sucks, the delay is horrible. Not really the apps fault but still annoying. Also, I log in a few times for the same meeting, and it doesn't save the last phone# as a link. Everytime, I have to enter the number manually. My android phone Zoom app saves it automatically which makes logging in a lot more easier/faster. If they fix this, I will upgrade my stars to 5.

Could be better. Zoom is very laggy, and when I'm in a zoom meeting for work and they create a breakout room, zoom won't let me go into it. It always says "internet connection timeout" when my internet is completely fine. I've reported the issue multiple times and haven't heard one thing about it. Very displeased. I've also looked up support and it says on everything that it's because of your 40 minute free zoom meeting, but I'm not the host for the meetings, my internet is great (over 100 Mbps)
