I Zoom. You Zoom. He/She/We Zooms. I never imagined Zoom would play such a major role in my life, but I feel like I’m using it 24/7—hence why I’ve bothered researching the best Zoom backgrounds. Is it too much to ask that my Zoom work meetings look and feel a little different than my after-6 p.m. Zoom happy hours? I think not.
If you’re like, “Whoa wait, what’s Zoom? I’ve been social distancing by reading a good book and piecing together puzzles,” then props to you for managing to unplug and get offline for a little while, but some of us need face to (virtual) face interactions. Zoom is a video conferencing service much like Skype, and it’s a great way to stay connected for both work and play purposes. While you can buy plans starting at $14.99, the free package allows for meetings up to 40 minutes with up to 100 participants, and unlimited one-on-one meetings.
Once you set up your Zoom account, why video chat from your boring bedroom or living room? Jazz it up with a Zoom background—either one of the included images or a funny pop culture pick of your own. Some of my favorites are Kourtney and Kim Kardashians’ iconic fist fight, a trip to Disney World, and Ina Garten posing with her massive quarantini. Basically, pretty much anything unexpected makes for a good Zoom background guarantee to get a few laughs.
If you’re ready to impress your friends and co-workers with your strong Zoom background game, read on for 23 of the best below.
