VooV Meeting

response required

I recently dialed in for a VooV Meeting which was set up by another person using one of the app’s US access numbers. Few weeks later I received an international call bill from my service provider for over USD 700 for the meeting call. Apparently, VooV app dialed a Chinese number without users awareness. Two other meeting participants incurred international call charges as well. I tried to contact Tencent for help, but the answer was “we couldn’t duplicate the problem, so we couldn’t help you...” I can see now why Trump administration is trying to ban Tencent’s apps, such as Tiktok and WeChat.

I have tried to create my VooV account several times hoping this is fixed. So, I am an expat living in China. I have only a Chinese cell phone number. When I try to create my account, it says, “No, if you are a mainland China use, you must use Tencent Meetings.” However, Tencent Meetings is not in the US APP store where I get my Apps! So, therefore I cannot use Tencent Meetings nor can I use VooV. Kind of a big problem for all of the teachers right now in my situation trying to teach our classes using software that is stable in China. Zoom and Skype are not that stable. So, what am I supposed to do?

I use this software to have meetings with my colleagues in China but it is still missing two key features that zoom has :-( The first one is being able make to draw annotations over the shared screen with the cursor and the second is being able to watch videos with audio from the presenters shared desktop view.

Zoom is overloaded now and has performance and sign up issues. Voov is an alternative that is free for up to 300 user meetings. It is made by TenCent and has better infrastructure backing it up, meaning fewer issues. Both are developed by the Chinese, but Voov doesn’t send your data to Facebook like Zoom does.

Hi, I think you can change the region of App Store and iPhone to China mainland. Then you will have access to “Tencent Meeting”. Hope it helps.
