Hosts can also mark submitted questions as something that will be answered live, so participants are aware and can expect their answers to follow soon. Questions can be submitted anonymously, and responses can be sent publicly for all to see or privately to just the sender. Previously, this was only available in webinars. You will need to enable this feature in your Zoom account settings on the web under In Meeting (Advanced) > Toggle “ Q&A in meetings” on. Hosts can now enable the Q&A feature in meetings to allow participants to ask questions, which can be viewed by all, but only answered by the host and co-hosts. This timer is based on the scheduled duration, and the timer changes to a slowly warming gold color after reaching “5 minutes remaining.” Previously, participants could only choose to view the current duration of the meeting.

Meeting participants and webinar panelists can choose to display how much time is left in a scheduled session. Previously, there was no speaker attribution in the displayed captions. Their full name is provided when viewing the full transcript. If the user has no profile picture, their initials will be displayed instead.

When viewing automated captions in a live meeting or webinar, captions will now include the speaker’s profile picture to make it easier to understand who is currently speaking.

Speaker attributions for live automated captions.These summaries, however, will not be posted on a monthly basis like Google’s, as these services update less frequently. In an effort to bring you the latest on new features and functionalities, we will be introducing service-specific summaries for Zoom and Slack, similar to what we currently offer for U-M Google.
