I can appreciate his pain: I have never 'zoomed' and generally find tablets confusing: I stick like glue to my laptop and its 'proper' keyboard.

I did briefly pick up Mrs G's ipad last weekend to look at something I had been instructed to look at, but there was something else on the screen and I couldn't figure out how to make it go away - my 5 year old grand-daughter rescued me.

I find using zoom not that easy. My sisters and I have a zoom get together once a month, I use my laptop for it. I have an ipad but don't find it easy to use, I dislike touch screens.

Another innocent victim of doing video calls - but at least he wasn't a cat.

Yes, MS Teams did that to my wife in the middle of a conference call.
 
Ah, but I was so much older then ... I'm younger than that now

And of course it would be turning it off and turning it back on again that worked.

Not in our case - when it came back on everything was upside down including the login -  had to reset stuff in the display settings.
