How do I join a Zoom meeting?

You can join Zoom meetings via application or by using a link. Zoom application can be installed via the Zoom web portal or via HAMK’s Software Center Service (HAMK staff). Use either a desktop app or a mobile app in order to utilize all the functionalities. If you participate in a meeting on a browser, always use Chrome as your browser. Other browsers don’t recognize your video or audio devices. See limitations when using a browser to participate: Comparison on Zoom Help Center.
