Zoom is wrought with hacking problems and it is not recommended to install it at the moment. It appears to not have problems with hackers on an iPad, but I would not allow it on any of my Macs. As for Google Chrome, no hacking problems, but it is known as a resource hog - meaning it'll gobble up all the RAM and processor power you've got making it more difficult to use any other app while Chrome is running.


If you uninstalled Zoom, but it is still creating problems, contact the developer for proper uninstall instructions.

BTW - I have repeatedly tried to contact the Zoom developer. I signed up and am paying for Zoom Pro for business reasons. However, Zoom will not respond to e-mails, calls, or anything else. I will uninstall from the iMac and install on my iPad. Hopefully, that will work. Thank you for your insight.
