| Step # | Action |
| 1 | Using Zoom on your Android phone is much like using any other app–you only need the Zoom app to get started. Once you have it on your phone, there are three methods by which you can join a call: using the meeting ID (and password), Zoom call link, and phone number. Whichever method you choose, you will need the details linked to your Zoom call. Fortunately, Zoom sends these to you to the email address connected to your Zoom account. Here’s an example of what that email looks like:  |
| 2 | To get started, first open the Zoom app on your Android phone. This is the icon of the Zoom app and the one you should be tapping:  |
| 3 | Upon opening the app, you may possibly find yourself on the login page. This is what it looks like on an Android phone: Log into your Zoom account using the option of your choosing, such as via your email address or your Google Account. |
| 4 | After you log in (or open the Zoom app), you’ll find yourself on the app’s homepage. On an Android phone, the home page typically looks like what you see in the photo below: Tap on the button that’s labeled “Join” (which you can get a closer look at with the photo shown below).  |
| 5 | The app will take you to a page asking for the Zoom call’s meeting ID and the name you plan on using for the meeting. (An example of this is shown below) Enter the meeting ID (an example of which is shown below) and the name you wish to use for the call. |
| 6 | The Zoom app may take you to a window asking for the password of the call you’re about to join. In the event this happens, simply key in the password–which you can usually find under the meeting ID in the email–and then confirm. |
| 7 | Another option you have when it comes to joining a Zoom call would be to use the link associated with the call. This link can also be found in the email notification–an example of which can be seen below. To join using this method, simply tap on the button that says “Join Meeting/Webinar” or the link included in the email. |
| 8 | You can also join a Zoom call from your Android phone via a call. Together with the meeting ID and Zoom call link, there are phone numbers that you can find in the Zoom email (as seen below). All you need to do is enter any of the numbers listed in the email into your phone’s keypad and call it. |
| 9 | In a few moments, Zoom will connect you to the call. |
| 10 | Congratulations! You’ve joined a Zoom call from your Android phone using one of the three possible methods! |
