Wordly App for Zoom FAQ
Frequently asked questions about the Wordly App for Zoom
The Wordly App for Zoom provides real-time Zoom translation, enabling attendees to read captions or follow along in their preferred language during meetings.
Do I need a Wordly account to use the Wordly App for Zoom?
If you are only joining a Wordly translation session being hosted by someone else, then a Wordly account is not needed.
However, if you wish to host a Wordly translation session within your own Zoom meeting for others to join, then you must have a Wordly account and have enough minutes to run the session.
Can I listen to translations during a session?
The Wordly App for Zoom doesn't currently support spoken output in translated languages. However, the browser-based attend.wordly.ai interface does support spoken output. This interface is accessible via the Live on Wordly streaming links. See Wordly in a Browser in Hosting a Zoom meeting.
Does the Wordly App for Zoom work in breakout rooms?
The Wordly App for Zoom does not support Zoom breakout rooms at this time. In order to provide translations, Wordly needs access to the audio stream, which Zoom does not make available in breakout rooms.
Can I use the Wordly App for Zoom on my iOS and/or Android devices?
As of version 1.6.0, the Wordly App for Zoom can be opened within the official Zoom client app on mobile devices.
