How to join a Zoom call from a link on a phone or tablet

Someone has sent you a Zoom link by email or text. You can join without signing in.

  1. 1Open the message and tap the Zoom link.
  2. 2If asked, tap Open, or Join from the Zoom app. The first time, it may ask you to install the Zoom app — do that, then tap the link again.
  3. 3Type your name if it asks, then tap Join.
  4. 4When it asks about audio, tap Wi-Fi or Cellular Data, or Call using Internet Audio.
  5. 5If you see a microphone with a line through it, tap it so the others can hear you.

If it doesn’t look like this

To leave the call, tap Leave or End, usually at the top right or bottom right.
