Setting up breakout rooms on an iPad

I’m hosting Zoom sessions on my 8th generation iPad (software version 15.2.1, if that applies).   I can’t find a way to set up breakout rooms.  Can I do this?  If so, how?

    Hello @WillieMays,

     

    Please review this support article regarding Breakout Rooms.

    You will see by the prerequisites that you cannot initiate breakouts as the host from an iPad.  You need to host the meeting using our desktop client.

       What does "You need to host the meeting using our desktop client." mean and can you do that from an ipad?

      It means that you cannot do it from an ipad. You have to use a desktop or laptop computer to iniate Breakout rooms.
