Use LiteVide in a Zoom meeting
LiteVide is a user-managed Zoom App for Meetings. It is in review and is not listed yet. It is not a Meeting SDK bot.
1. Adding the app
- Use the Zoom desktop client. Minimum version: MINIMUM_ZOOM_VERSION.
- A Marketplace search will not find LiteVide while it is in review. Use ZOOM_AUTHORIZE_URL from the install page when Zoom provides it.
- In a meeting, open Apps and pin the panel. The panel URL is https://litevide.com/app.html.
- An account admin may have to pre-approve the app before Add appears.
2. Usage
- Timer. Set 1, 2, 5, or 10 minutes, or type mm:ss. Space pauses when the panel is focused. A chime plays on this device at zero. 5-minute break posts a back-at time. Close the room sends decisions and the parking lot, then downloads a recap. Export show bible saves a JSON file on this device. Nothing is uploaded. A second computer cannot run the timer.
- Cues. Applause, Chime, Airhorn, and Ticking clock are synthesized here. Nothing is downloaded. They play for the host.
- Links. One click posts a saved URL into meeting chat. Free keeps three links. Pro removes that cap.
- Record. Tick the consent box before capture. The host is responsible for telling participants. The file is a WebM on the device. REC stays visible while capture runs.
Shortcuts, only while the panel is focused and you are not typing: Space pauses the timer, M toggles the local mute control, V toggles the local camera control. These do not replace Zoom’s shortcuts.
Free shows the LiteVide watermark on the break overlay. Checkout stays on litevide.com. The meeting panel does not sell Pro.
3. Removing the app
- In the Zoom desktop client, open Apps, find LiteVide, and remove it.
- Open Zoom’s app management page, select LiteVide, and uninstall or deauthorize it.
- Sign out of Zoom and back in if the panel is still pinned.
- localStorage on litevide.com still holds presets and licence keys. Clear site data for litevide.com to delete them.
4. Troubleshooting
- Panel is blank. Reload it from Apps. If you opened app.html in a normal browser, you will see install instructions.
- Untrusted URL. The home URL must be https://litevide.com/app.html. Production does not use a localhost redirect.
- No chime. The cue is local. Check the computer volume. Participants do not hear it unless you share that audio.
- Chat link failed. Confirm the app may post to chat, and that you are the host inside the meeting.
- Recording permission denied. Tick consent, then allow the screen prompt. If you dismiss it, nothing is recorded and nothing is uploaded.
5. FAQ
Do files leave the machine? Timers, cues, presets, and the WebM stay on the device. A chat link is text you choose to post through Zoom. Card data is handled by Square.
Can an admin pre-approve it? Yes, in Zoom admin, before users add it. Guests do not install LiteVide to read a chat message.
Refunds. Email support@litevide.com within 14 days of a first Pro charge if Pro branding was not used in a live meeting.
6. Contact
Email support@litevide.com. Include the Zoom client operating system and version, Free or Pro, and a screenshot of the panel. First response is within 2 business days. Do not use a Marketplace review as the support channel.
