Zoom’s latest update adds a call end chime when users disconnect abruptly

Zoom has introduced a new update for the platform on Android, which includes a number of new features like enhanced cloud contact integration and enhanced nonverbal feedback. The platform has also introduced plenty of new features and fixes for users on desktop.

One of the more interesting new additions for Zoom is a call end chime.

“Users will hear a chime and see a notification when a call ends abruptly, typically from poor network connection or the other caller ending the call,” Zoom said in its release notes.

Here’s the full changelog for Zoom on Android version 5.4.7:

New and enhanced features

  • General features
    • Enhanced cloud contact integration for chat/call features
      Contacts imported through the contact integration can now be easily added as a Zoom contact. Once approved as a Zoom contact, you will have the ability to call or meet with them and see their Zoom status.
  • Meeting/webinar features
    • Enhanced nonverbal feedback and reactions
      Nonverbal feedback options are moved to the Reactions button, and all reactions will be shown in the corner of the participants’ video. The host will see each participant’s reactions in the participant list, as well as the aggregate numbers of each reaction at the bottom of the list.
    • Raise hand for host and co-host
      Hosts and co-hosts can utilize the raise hand feature along with meeting participants and webinar attendees.
  • Meeting features
    • Improved grouping of security options when scheduling
      The “Only authenticated users can join” option is now located in the Security section of the scheduling window, grouping it with Passcode and Waiting Room options to allow for easier selection and use of security features.
  • Phone features
    • Support for text messaging (SMS and MMS)
      Users with Zoom Phone Pro licenses can use their assigned direct phone numbers to send or receive text messages (SMS and MMS). See our text messaging FAQ for more information.
    • Enhancements for call queues with call monitoring
      If call monitoring is enabled for a call queue, members and supervisors can easily monitor their queues and use call monitoring features.
    • Call end chime
      Users will hear a chime and see a notification when a call ends abruptly, typically from poor network connection or the other caller ending the call.

Resolved Issues

  • Minor bug fixes
  • Security enhancements
