Hey Buddy,
Here are a number of hacks of
the ZOOM video conferencing app:
You’ll learn:
How we save hours each year with shortcuts (e.g., invite someone to a meeting in less than 2 seconds)
Little-known integrations that can make scheduling meetings seamless
How to actually look better in your video meetings
And more…
Zoom Keyboard Shortcuts
Use these shortcuts to save time on common tasks in Zoom.
1) Quick Invite
When you’re in a meeting, type ⌘Cmd+I (PC: Alt+I) to open the Invite window.
Zoom tip: Quick Invite
From the Email tab, copy the URL, and send it to anyone who you want to invite to the meeting.
Or click on Contacts to directly invite a colleague if they’re on your contact list.

Note: See Tip #10 for an even faster way to invite others
2) Record Meeting
Recording is a tremendously useful feature in Zoom.
Want to save key meetings or employee one-on-one’s? Record them for reference.
Doing an interview and don’t want to slow things down by taking notes? Record it and get it transcribed. We do this for all of our founder interviews.
Just type ⌘Cmd+Shift+R (PC: Alt+R) to start recording any meeting.
Type ⌘Cmd+Shift+P (PC: Alt+P) to pause/resume recording.
3) Share Screen
Screen sharing is one of the key features that Zoom does better than any other video conferencing platform we tried.
To start a screen share, type ⌘Cmd+Shift+S (PC: Alt+Shift+S).
To pause/resume a screen share, type ⌘Cmd+Shift+T (PC: Alt+T).
4) Mute Audio
Use ⌘Cmd+Shift+A (PC: Alt+A) to mute/unmute your audio.
5) Turn Off Video
To quickly turn video off/on, hit ⌘Cmd+Shift+V (PC: Alt+V).
6) Mute Everyone
Our daily huddles now involve 20 people.
Ambient or background noise can often get in the way of clear communication.
We found this trick where the meeting host can hit ⌘Cmd+Ctrl+M (PC: Alt+M) to mute everyone on the call at once.
This shortcut has single-handedly shaved minutes off of our daily meetings.

If you fix these settings once, they’ll reward you with optimized Zoom meetings forever…
7) Always Mute Microphone
This setting ensures you enter meetings quietly without bringing sudden noise to the call.
You can access Audio Settings directly from a Zoom call by clicking the arrow next to the microphone.
Check “Mute microphone when joining a meeting“.
Zoom tip: Always mute mic
The same setting exists (and as a rule, should always be used) on the mobile app.
8) Always Turn Video Off
Unless video is a necessity, we’ve found that turning it off can help increase the clarity of the call.
This particular setting allows you to turn it off when entering a call (you can always turn it on later)—which is another helpful way to reduce sudden interruptions.
You can access Video Settings directly from a Zoom call by clicking the arrow next to the camera.
Check “Turn off my video when joining a meeting”.
Zoom tips: Always turn video off
9) Display Names
This is less important when you’re chatting with people you know well, but if you use Zoom to do a lot of sales calls, then this setting will ensure you never accidentally forget the name of the person you’re talking to.
Go to Settings > Video and check “Always display participant’s name on their videos.”

10) Auto-copy Invite URL When Starting a Meeting
The Invite keyboard shortcut is great, but this setting takes things a step further.
Found in General settings, this option makes it super easy to invite people to any meeting, without even going through the process of manually copying the invite URL.

11) Enable Shortcuts Outside of Zoom
This setting will double the power of all of the keyboard shortcuts above, and that’s not an exaggeration.
Do you often have other windows open while in Zoom meetings?
Well, with this setting, you can use your Zoom keyboard shortcuts even when you’re in another window.
To turn it on, go to Settings > Keyboard Shortcuts and select “Enable Global Shortcut.”

12) Meeting Reminder (Mobile)
When I’m on the go, I don’t always know when a meeting is about to start.
On my phone, calendar reminders often go ignored (there are so many of them that it’s just too noisy to keep up). So I set up Zoom reminders to ensure that I never miss an important scheduled meeting.

13) Disable Waiting Room
Zoom recently turned on a bunch of privacy-related settings by default. One of those is the waiting room, which requires you to admit each attendee individually.
Our calls are mostly internal anyway (and it can take a while to admit 10+ people individually), so we turned this setting off under Settings > In Meeting (Advanced) > Waiting room.
(Note: It takes a while to scroll through all the options on this page, so we suggest you CTRL+F “waiting room” to find it quickly.)
Toggle this off to remove the waiting room
you can use Dj between the class and your house to disturb the class's
