On August 3, Zoom will require version 5.16.6 for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS and Windows. Users can check their Zoom version directly in the desktop client and mobile app. If the version is below 5.16.6, please upgrade to the latest version of the Zoom client as soon as possible.
Zoom has implemented a Software Quarterly Lifecycle Policy requiring a new minimum version every three months. This policy ensures all users have the required privacy and security updates and the latest features.
On August 3, anyone attempting to sign in or join a meeting/webinar using a version below 5.16.6 will be prompted to update the Zoom client to the current minimum version. If an update cannot be made immediately, the option to join through the web client is available.
