Zoom will remove the 40-minute limit on Christmas video calls.

The company behind the video call app will waive this limit for three periods in December and January.
Zoom will remove the 40-minute limit on Christmas video calls
We are expecting a Christmas that is more attentive to the computer than to the table, not in vain do health conditions make remote meetings safer than face-to-face ones. Given the situation caused by the coronavirus, most operators have Christmas promotions where they give away gigabytes to their users. And video call companies are also removing limits, as is the case with Zoom: Free accounts will be able to make unlimited video calls during the most important dates.
Unlimited Zoom video calls on free accounts
Video call apps will be the stars again this Christmas, just as they were during the confinement. And Zoom is on the podium of those apps: The company has seen its use soar. Aware that the application will be essential in many cell phones and computers, Zoom has decided to have a gesture with the users of their free accounts eliminating the main drawback: The 40 minutes.
Until now it was possible to establish group communication (up to 100 people) without any cost, but you had to leave the room and create a new one every 40 minutes if the organizer had a free account.
The elimination of the 40-minute limit will be global, as specified by Zoom on its website. And you don’t have to do anything to get the benefit: Simply, the video call will not stop until the host closes it.
