Using the app
Add text and visuals on-the-fly
Once you’ve opened Prezi Video for Zoom, you can start typing right away and you'll see your content appear next to you live in your video feed.
To add a visual, click the image icon in the slide thumbnail. Here, you can search for a visual via keyword, or browse our sticker, GIF, icon or Unsplash libraries. You can also use your own image by clicking "Upload Image" from the content picker, or by pasting or drag-and-dropping a photo directly into the slide in your sidebar.
To navigate through your slides, you can use the arrows in the sidebar, or just click on a desired slide to select it. Depending on what you want your audience to see, use the toggle to either hide or show your content. When your content is not hidden, it will appear right alongside you in your video feed.
You can reorder your slides by dragging a slide up or down, or delete one by clicking the three dots on any slide and then selecting “Delete”.
Auto-open the app
Ensure you have Prezi Video for Zoom at your fingertips whenever you need it by opting to auto-open the app in your Zoom meetings. This will automatically open the app in your sidebar whenever you go live in a Zoom meeting, without the need for searching through your downloaded apps or taking any additional steps to launch it.
With the app open, click the three dot menu at the top bar of the app. Then, click "Auto-open in meetings" to change the setting. You'll notice this setting is now checked, and will begin automatically launching in your next live session. You can un-check the setting at any time.
Make it your own
You can customize the appearance of the content in your viewport by opening the "Look" modal from your menu bar. There, you can choose your favorite preset color scheme, which will update the color of your text content as well as your nametag. You can also choose to swap the layout of your content, so your text appears to your left or your right side.
Using your nametag
You can show or hide your name tag by clicking the Name tag shortcut in your menu bar, or by opening the Nametag modal and toggling it on and off from there. If you're a Zoom Essential Apps user, you'll get access to customize your nametag by adding a second line of detail or editing your name. Otherwise, the nametag will use your Zoom display name by default.
