Nobody seems to know if my pixel 10 phone supports virtual background

@anna_naden Based on Zoom's specifications, the Pixel 10's Tensor G5 processor and other powerful specs comfortably exceed the minimum requirements listed here: https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0060007

Please try enabling a virtual background using these steps and let us know how it goes:
1. Open the Zoom app and join a meeting.
2. Tap the screen to show the meeting controls.
3. Tap "More" (the three-dot icon).
4. Select "Background & Effects".
5. Choose a background from the default options or tap the "+" icon to upload an image from your device's photo gallery.

Thank you for using Zoom!

"Background and Effects" is not there. The list is Audio Settings, Caption Settings, Meeting Settings and Disconnect Audio.

Of these, Meeting Setttings leads to "Always Show COntrols", "Meeting Topic", "Show name when participants join", "Show non video participants", "Show my video in gallery", "Stop incoming video"

Background and Effects is not present.

The version of zoom is 6.5.12.33008. Uninstalling and reinstalling does not change the version number

Playstore itself, however, reveals a possible issue - kind of a long shot. I'm investigation and will reply.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for sharing these reports and for testing across different Pixel 10 models. Our team has confirmed that the missing Background & Effects menu on Pixel 10 devices is a known issue. The fix is scheduled to be included in the upcoming Zoom app version 6.6.10.

Once that version becomes available, please update your app and the blurred/virtual background option should appear as expected.

Thanks for your patience while this gets resolved!
