Start and Stop Video in Zoom Meetings

One of the main features of Zoom is that attendees can see each other’s video in the meeting.
However, you may want to switch off your video for privacy reasons or bandwidth issues on your connection. Or you may want to pop out of the meeting, and not leave an empty room on display.
To start your video, press Alt + V.
Press Alt + V again to stop your video.
Generally, video does not come on automatically, so you can choose to control it with this shortcut.
And if you cannot see what’s in shot, or you have difficulty positioning yourself in frame, then feel free to consider leaving the video off.
