You have to download it, but you don't have to create an account to simply participate in a meeting.

Is someone able to arrange a test meeting with me on zoom just so I can make sure that I am able to use it with my screen reading software and that my video is turned off?

Hey Guys we are about 2 1/2 hours away and a large storm just rolled in. If I lose power/internet. just have someone else create the zoom meeting if no one hears from me by 5 minutes after 3 pm central time.

Okay thanks, just send me a code when you're able to.
I can't figure out how to change my username unfortunately so it'll be my actual name which shows up, not ideal but it's not an uncommon name.
