ZOOM FIRST TIME USER INSTRUCTIONS
If you are using Zoom for the first time, don’t be afraid. It’s easy to use!
The only things you will need to be able to join our Zoom meeting are a tablet or smartphone, or a computer with a microphone and camera.
When joining a Zoom meeting with your Vinje family, you should receive a link to join the meeting via Facebook or email. You should be able to join the Zoom meeting by simply clicking on the link provided to you in the email. If you haven’t used Zoom before, you will be prompted to either download the Zoom app or to launch the application.
If you are joining the meeting from an iPad or iPhone, you can download the “Zoom” app from the apple store. Just follow the prompts.
A couple of tips:
If you want to test your system ahead of time and don’t have the Zoom app yet, you can
download it ahead of time here. Enter your email, click the blue "sign up" button and follow the prompts.
When you access the Zoom meeting room, you might receive a couple of prompts:
1)
If prompted, allow Zoom to access the camera/video from your computer/tablet.
2)
When prompted, click “Join using internet audio”.
I would also recommend switching to “Gallery View.” On an iPad that will show up as an option in the upper left hand corner of your screen. On a computer, it should be an option toward the top right of your screen. (This is not an option when using Zoom from a Smartphone.)
These are just some of the basics. Have fun with the app! If you have any questions,
email Pastor Dane and he will do his best to answer them.
We look forward to having you join us digitally soon!
