Android Tablet Wide Angle Camera No Longer Available After Latest Update

Hello,

 

I am using Zoom on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra (Android). After the latest Zoom update, the camera behavior has changed significantly.

 

Previously, I was able to use the tablet’s ultra wide-angle front camera, allowing a fully zoomed-out view. This is essential for my use case, as I teach fitness and movement-based classes and need a full-body frame.

 

After the update:

 

  • Zoom automatically crops the video (auto-framing / auto-crop)
  • There is no “Fit / Fill / Original aspect ratio” option
  • Wide-angle view cannot be selected or locked

 

 

The device hardware fully supports ultra wide-angle video, so this appears to be an Android Zoom app behavior, not a device issue.

 

Is there:

 

  1. A way to disable auto-framing on Android tablets?
  2. A way to manually select or lock the ultra wide-angle camera?
  3. Any plan to restore wide-angle control for tablet users?

 

 

This update makes Zoom very difficult to use for fitness and movement instructors.

 

Thank you.
