In case you are planning to host a formal or casual meeting on your Zoom app, then you should be aware of how to use the essential functions of the apps, such as recording a video meeting. Even If you are simply a participant in a meeting, you can record the whole call, but you would require permission from the host of that particular call.

How do I Record a Video Call on Zoom as a Host?

A user can achieve this by choosing the option saying “New Meeting” from the home page. After that, invite the participants you need to talk with to join your meeting.

When a meeting is settled up, make sure all of the participants are available and then begin the recording of the meeting using the button named as “Record” on the lower of the window. You can also hit the Alt + R keys at the same time to initiate the recording of the video.

Once you do that, the recording will start. To pause the current recording, head to the button saying “Pause”. You can also use the Alt+P keys together to pause a video recording and keep in mind this will not affect the ongoing call.  

To simply end the recording, head over to the Stop button on the screen. You can also use the Alt+R key to stop the recording of the video call on your Zoom app. 

Once the meeting ends, head over to the option saying “End Meeting” to on the lower-right side of the screen.
