  1. Go to https://zoom.us/signin . You can use any web browser to log in.
    • This method is good to use if you're on a different computer that doesn't have the Zoom desktop client installed, or if you rather use Zoom without installing any software.
  2. If you use SSO, Google, or Facebook you may be prompted to confirm your account and your birthday.
    • SSO stands for single sign-on, which is something you'd be assigned if you're using a company's Zoom account.

    I'm old and my grandkids never call me, how can I convince them to Zoom with me so I can tell them how lonely I've been?
    Community Answer
    You can ask your children (your grandchildren's parents) to ask to join a Zoom meeting with their (grandma/grandpa). If they like to play games, do that more often, with shared ones online. Add family safety or other parental apps to prevent them from playing inappropriate games. Tell stories together and have them tell you regularly that you want updates on what they're doing.
