“Does Zoom notify screen recording? If it does, is there any solution for recording a Zoom meeting without others knowing?”

Zoom will notify screen recording only if you use its built-in Record option. That’s because it can detect the screen recording. In such a case, Zoom will notify all the attendants when you start or stop the recording.

In other words, if you use a third-party screen recorder, such as OBS Studio or QuickTime, to record Zoom meetings on your computer or mobile phone, Zoom won’t notify others. By doing so, you can record the Zoom meeting without anyone knowing.

If you wish to record a Zoom meeting without notifying others on a computer, you can use any third-party screen recording tools, such as Xbox Game Bar, OBS Studio, QuickTime, SurFlex Screen Recorder, and more. If you are going to Record Zoom on a phone or tablet, you can directly use the built-in screen recorder on the mobile device to get it done.
