The problem

You are hosting a Zoom meeting. People are wandering in over time. Every time someone joins or leaves, a bell tone is played. This can get increasingly annoying if you’re trying to get started and the bell is constantly going off.

The fix

As a host or co-host, you have the ability to turn off the bell:

  1. Click ‘Manage Participants’ to view the participant list of the meeting.
  2. At the bottom of the participant list, select ‘More’.
  3. From the menu that appears, uncheck the ‘Play Join and Leave Sound’ option.
