Does anyone know how can I enable and use OTG webcam instead of integrated one on my android phone zoom app?

Best answer by DDubZoomer

The Zoom app should automatically recognize your OTG webcam if it is supported on your Android phone. Although you may have already done these steps, I suggest the following.

Validate your Android phone supports USB OTG. You can check with your manufacturer or use a USB OTG checker. You can download one from Google Play
Make sure that you are on the latest Android OS version and make sure OTG is enabled in your settings.

@DDubZoomer ,

I did everything you wrote. My phone responds to flash drive, mice, keyboard and webcamera but I can't use my webcam connected to phone by an OTG adapter in Zoom app cause it doesn't recognize my OTG camera automaticly and I don't have a option such as this one on Windows version app to switch to another camera manually https://prnt.sc/26hnhay

Hello @Djikac,

It seems that currently OTG support in the Zoom Android software development kit (SDK) is not available for cameras. I am checking with the product team when support is planned to be added.
