5. Click on a meeting to view, download, share, or delete the recording .

2. Navigate to the Meetings tab (or Calendar depending on your version).

3. Select Recorded on the side panel

4. Cloud recordings will show an “Open” button — click it to jump to the web portal view for that recording

Via Zoom Mobile App

• Only cloud recording is supported on mobile. After your meeting is processed, recordings appear in the web portal. To access them:

  1. Open a browser or the Zoom app and go to Recordings.

Useful Tips

• Recording host role matters — cloud recordings are saved to the host’s account even if a co-host starts recording

• Ensure your plan allows cloud recording (Zoom Workplace Pro, Business, Enterprise; not available on Free plan)

• Cloud recordings might take a few minutes to fully process, and older ones may auto-delete depending on retention policies

Quick Checklist

If you’re trying to find a recording from someone else’s meeting (you weren’t the host), you’ll need that host to share the link or manage permissions.
