I would really feel better if zoom allowed me to muffle my background instead of exposing my house to the public whether I like it or not because I have no option Yet the type of meeting you want to hold might need a bit of tweaking with buttons then put them back to your original setting once that meeting is over. Sometimes on settings I would not touch a certain button because I am not so sure what changes it will bring which might actually disrupt a very important meeting which nobody wants to happen. A lot of old people ( like me) are truly not brilliant with technology but lending us a little hand by suggesting something like automatically as we go on with the meeting if you notice this person could have touched that button to easy her/ his struggle. Please could you kindly suggest something to improve if you see a mistake that could be making it difficult to carry on smoothly especially if it’s technical. Zoom is brilliant for meeting’s and the tutorials are very good. Before, only nine people could be viewed in the same screen and you had to scroll through to the next screen to see any more people.

The latest update, which allows far more faces to appear in the Gallery at one time on the iPad, is a great improvement. Sometimes, it can be a bit unstable for the odd individual, but this is more to do with the internet than the app, which does try to reconnect to the group. Not the same as being there, but still better than nothing. My husband and I were also able, along with other relatives, to drop in, virtually, on our granddaughter’s birthday celebration and watch her blow out her candles.

It took some of us (including a couple aged 89 and 90) a little while to get used to it, but has proved wonderful for over 20 of us to be able to get together regularly, talking very naturally in our own homes.
