Several users took to the comment section to thank Zoom for temporarily lifting the 40 minute limit.
Zoom video conferencing application
In Zoom, after 40 minutes, the meeting ends automatically. Participants must restart the call after the stipulated time.
With most people working from home, taking online classes, or connecting with family through Zoom meetings amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the 40-minute limit has been the main restriction. The video conferencing app became quite popular amid the pandemic and continued to offer users a number of innovative ways to participate in meetings and video calls.
Many of Zoom’s competitors have similar restrictions on online meetings. These include Google Meet with a 60 minute limit and Cisco Webex has a 50 minute limit.
These providers charge more for business-level plans that remove the cap and increase the number of participants allowed.
