Zoom Conditions & Limitations
Skima gives you full access to all Zoom-related features at no additional cost. However, your Zoom account settings and plan limitations will still apply.
Here's what to keep in mind:
Zoom Plan | What You Can Do | Limitations |
---|---|---|
Free | Schedule and host meetings via Skima | Group meetings end after 40 mins |
Pro or Higher | No major limitations | Based on Zoom’s terms of service |
- Skima doesn’t restrict Zoom features — but Zoom’s own limitations (like meeting duration) still apply.
- If your meeting ends due to Zoom's free plan limits, you'll need to upgrade your Zoom account.
