Say hello to the new, simplified Prezi Video for Zoom. You may have used Prezi Video in Zoom before, but we wanted to make it easier for everyone to take advantage of Prezi Video’s great features in any video call. Here’s everything that’s changed with our new release.
Introducing the new Prezi Video for Zoom
- You don’t need to install the Prezi Video desktop app.
All you need to do is add the Prezi Video for Zoom app from the Zoom App Marketplace to start adding and presenting your content. You can also add the app via an invitation from another participant in one of your Zoom calls.
- You can access Prezi Video’s most popular features directly in Zoom.
Once you’re inside Prezi Video for Zoom, start by adding your first slide and typing your content. Whatever you add will appear right alongside you in your video feed.
You can navigate through slides using your arrow keys or by clicking on a slide to select it. Reorder the slides by dragging them up or down, or delete them by clicking the three dots on the side of the slide and clicking “Delete”.
To share the app with others, you can click “Invite” to share the Prezi Video for Zoom app with the other participants of your meeting, letting them add content to their videos on the spot.
