The "claim host" feature is missing in Android mobile devices since the latest version.
Is there any other or new way to claim host on a meeting?
I opened a ticket to Zoom support and got an update from Mark Siao that this us a known issue and its fix will be deployed in version 5.12.6.
Solved! Go to Solution.

What version do you have?
Are you sure you're using an older version than version 5.12.6.x?
I cannot verify as I already updated from the previous version (5.12.2.9059) to the current one (5.12.6.9741) - in which this issue fix was deployed.
