U-M requires a minimum client version to increase security and minimize confusion and issues with missing features in old apps.

Older apps are less secure and also are missing many critical features that people need for teaching, learning, and research at U-M, such as the ability to self-select breakout rooms, suspend participant activities, etc.

Note: many Zoom features are not available in the browser and only available in the app therefore, ITS recommends updating your app whenever possible rather than joining from the browser.

ALTERNATIVE: Join from your browser by clicking the Join from browser link.

The message shown regarding contacting IT is a standard Zoom message that cannot be customized with U-M instructions.
