Find the email or message with the link

Look for a blue underlined link. It usually says 'Join Zoom Meeting'.

A new window will open. If it asks 'Open Zoom?', click 'Open'.

Allow your camera and microphone

If a small box pops up asking permission, click 'Allow'. This lets them see and hear you.

Click 'Join with Video'

You're in! Smile — your friends can see you now.
