This zoom app is not really cool because it basically will not let you get the app if you put in your email address and it keeps telling me that my gmail password and gmail address is wrong ugh.

Haven't used the app yet, for the following two reasons:
- Why an installer? I understand that in some rare instances installers are inevitable, but tell me - why do I need an installer for a messaging / conferencing app?
- The interface is not the finest (not particularly Mac-worthy).
