Elgato just dropped something big for anyone who lives in Zoom meetings: native Zoom support is now available for Stream Deck. With a brand-new plugin, users can control key Zoom functions, like muting, turning cameras on and off, sharing screens, or even dropping a reaction, right from any Stream Deck device.
It’s a major win for productivity, whether you’re running a big presentation or just trying to stay focused during daily check-ins. No more memorizing keyboard shortcuts or fumbling through menus mid-call. The plugin is available now as a free download on the Elgato Marketplace.
This release also marks a first: Stream Deck is now officially recognized as a Zoom Certified Personal Productivity Device. That’s a new hardware category from Zoom designed for tools that integrate deeply with the Zoom Workplace app. Basically, Stream Deck can now talk directly to Zoom in real-time, so when you hit a key, you’re not just guessing what’ll happen. You’ll see clear visual feedback for things like mic and camera status, which makes a huge difference.
Setup is as simple as drag-and-drop in the Stream Deck software, and it works on both Mac and PC. Even better, Elgato says more features are on the way, so this is just the beginning.
If you’ve already been using Stream Deck to streamline your workflow, this plugin takes it to the next level. And if you haven’t? This might be the update that convinces you to finally pick one up.
You can find the Zoom plugin now on the Elgato Marketplace.
