Why does a profile picture still appear even though I deleted it?

If you sign in to Zoom with your Google account, you may encounter this issue. This is because Zoom automatically assigns one of your saved images from your Google account as your profile image. There are a few ways to avoid this.

Your Google account profile picture is also linked to Zoom. If you leave your Google profile picture blank, your Zoom profile picture will also be empty. This may cause Zoom to select another photo from your Google account. In this case, you can delete all your images from your Google account.

While these two options work, not everyone wants to delete pictures and profile pictures from their Google account. We suggest using the third option, which involves saving a blank image as a profile photo on your Zoom account. This is how you do it:

1. Find a generic profile image on Google. It could even be a white JPEG. Save it to your device.

2. Next, in your web browser, go to zoom.us/profile and sign in to your Zoom account. Your profile page will then open.

3. Below your existing profile photo, choose the option to Change.

4. Select your generic profile picture saved on your device storage.

5. When the image has loaded, select Save.

Your Zoom profile picture will now be set as a generic image until you choose to change it again. This method works for all devices. It is important to keep in mind that Zoom only allows you to upload images smaller than 2 Mb and they must be in JPEG, PNG or GIF format.
