Glad to find these comments because searching the Zoom site didn't find it. What worked for me tonight for what I was looking for (as a participant pinning the video of another participant, not a meeting host) was to double tap with my finger on the gallery view image of that person, then a little menu with Chat and Pin as options open up, tap on Pin, and then they're pinned. Laptop interface is entirely different.

Double click on said participant to pin them.

I think you can double tap on their video and it will pin them. However, if a screen is being shared, that will disappear from your view.

We only have the free version, so I have no idea if there are more options available if you have a paid version.

Sorry, OP.


Wow, thank you so much PP! I really appreciate it. At least now I can stop driving myself crazy looking for that setting

PP here. Misunderstood and thought you were the meeting host.
If it is a huge problem perhaps you could bring it to the teachers attention and ask him or her to spotlight themselves, or mute the other participants unless called on, which is what my kids’ teachers do. I imagine you can’t be the only one having the issue in the class if kids are speaking out of turn.

You do this on an iPad?

OP here. I’m specifically asking how to “pin” someone, because when my kid’s classmates unmute themselves and start talking, the speaker view switches from the teacher to the talking kid, and then we can’t view whatever lesson is being shown. I don’t control whether these kids are muted or not.

I know how to do that, but I need to know how to pin a specific speaker so that if someone else starts talking, the screen stays on the pinned person.

For the love of god, someone please help me! The only answers I can find online pertain to Zoom on a regular computer. I’ve looked through all the settings and just can’t find anything.
