Do you spend a lot of time in Zoom meetings? I do. And when the Zoom app dock showed up in a coaching call yesterday, my client and I were a bit flabbergasted.

Anyways, I poked around and found out how to turn it off. With the below magical incantations, the app dock should disappear for a while. It’ll probably show up again someday when the app updates. Until then, you can banish it with these steps:
- Launch Zoom and start a meeting
- Click the
...below the ‘app dock’ - Uncheck the ‘show in every meeting’ setting (that’s helpfully toggled on by default)
- Click the
...again - Click the ‘close’ option to close the app dock in your current meeting
Excelsior!
