Hello Zoom Team,

I am experiencing an issue related to host and co-host functionalities when joining Zoom meetings from multiple devices. Here’s a summary of the problem:

I am hosting a Zoom meeting from one account.  
When I attempt to join the meeting from different devices with same account, I am still able to join as a co-host on these devices.  
Even when I use the “Reclaim Host” feature, the original device remains active without any host previlages, and the previous account does not log out.  
Is there a way to properly handle or resolve this situation within Zoom? I would like to ensure that once a host session is reclaimed the original host session account should be terminated.I want to keep only one join meeting active at a time and not support multiple devices.

Any guidance or solutions you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
