On 10/19/21, following a request from University of Wisconsin System campuses, Zoom has updated the setting controlling the number of devices that UW System (except for UW Madison) users can have logged in to Zoom at the same time.

With the new settings, UW System (except for UW Madison) Zoom users can be logged in to the Zoom application on up to five devices at once. Under the previous settings, each user could only log in to Zoom on one desktop, one tablet, and one phone at a time.

Note: this settings change does not impact the number of concurrent meetings a user can host.
