Couch Breakout Mac OS
  1. Participating in Zoom Breakout Rooms - Windows and Mac

Overview

Breakout rooms are sessions that are split off from the main Zoom meeting. They allow the participants to meet in smaller groups. Breakout rooms can be used for collaboration and discussion of the meeting.

Prerequisites

  • Join the meeting by the Zoom desktop client, mobile app, phone, or H.323/SIP device
  • Invitation to join breakout rooms from the meeting host

Note: Users joined into the Zoom meeting from the Zoom Desktop Client, Zoom Mobile App, or H.323/SIP devices can participate in breakout rooms. Users joined via the web client, Chromebooks/Chrome OS or Zoom Rooms are unable to join Breakout Rooms, but the main room can be used as an alternative session for these users.
