When you create a Zoom account, you can sign up using your credentials from Google or Facebook.

However, the most secure way to sign in is to use a unique password that you create specifically for Zoom . To do this, you'll just need to make a Zoom account .

But if you've made an account already and want to change your password, you can do that too.
