I've read through the existing threads on this topic (most dating back to 2021), and I've already tried the solutions suggested there — Wine, virtual machines, the Flatpak version, the DEB package, and the web-based version. None of them work reliably, and the web version in particular is sketchy at best: it sometimes reverts to Chinese language and UI, and signing in with an existing VooV account is hit or miss.
I'm bringing this back up because the situation hasn't changed as of 2026, and I think it's worth revisiting simply because I'd like to switch fully to Zorin.
VooV Meeting is a China-based video conferencing app — the international version of Tencent Meeting — and it's a professional requirement for many of us who teach or work with Chinese institutions. It currently has no official Linux client; official support is limited to Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android.
This is a repeated request that the Zorin OS team consider advocating for or facilitating better compatibility with VooV Meeting, whether through improved Wine/Proton integration, a containerized solution, or direct outreach to Tencent. I really believe in what Zorin is doing and would happily become a paying user if this were resolved.
Has anyone found a working solution more recently? Any updated information would be appreciated.
You could try @Aravisian's Suggestion but as long as the developer doesnt offer a Linux Version, You would have to see if You can use it in one of the Ways, You already named.
" VooV Meeting has no official native client for Linux (including Ubuntu, Zorin, or Mint), with official support limited to Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android .
Users attempting to run the software on Linux often face significant reliability issues with common workarounds:
Wine : While some users have reported success installing the Windows version via Wine, others encounter critical errors such as EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION or failures to launch.
Web Version : The browser-based interface is often unstable, with reports of it reverting to Chinese language settings and unreliable account login functionality.
Third-Party Tools : Solutions like Flatpak , DEB packages , or Android-in-Container (AIC/Waydroid) exist but are not officially supported and may not function reliably for all users.
For those requiring a stable Linux solution, alternatives like Jitsi Meet are frequently recommended, though they may not be compatible with all specific requirements (e.g., Chinese institutional mandates).
It is a real pity they do not allow JitsiMeet. During lockdown I refused to use Teams (I was successfully doing 98% of my work requirements on GNU/Linux). I insisted that Jitsi Meet be used instead (https://meet.jit.si). It is so good a colleague who I regularly conversed with on work issues forgot to log out at the end of the day. Three days later they realised they had not logged out. I am in the UK and helped a forum member in Florida give advice over chat window to reinstall Windows and was connected for 4 hours or more without loss of connection (bar one incident where I accidentally closed the connection). JitsiMeet is rock solid but you need a GitHub account to create a Meeting Room.
