Hello. The Web SDK allows us to detect if a user is currently in failover status. However, I am not able to find any similar functionality in the React Native SDK. Does this exist? Thanks. ---

Hi @Jon-L We dont have a 1:1 failover listener for React Native like we do for Web. However, you can use [onUserVideoNetworkStatusChanged](https://marketplacefront.zoom.us/sdk/custom/reactnative/enums/native_ZoomVideoSdk.NetworkStatus.html) which returns [NetworkStatus](https://marketplacefront.zoom.us/sdk/custom/reactnative/enums/native_ZoomVideoSdk.NetworkStatus.html). We also have [SessionReconnecting](https://marketplacefront.zoom.us/sdk/custom/reactnative/enums/native_ZoomVideoSdk.Errors.html#sessionreconnecting) as an error enum. Using these 2 listeners can together can give you better insight on whether a failover as occurred for the user. ---

Hello @ticorrian.heard, thanks for getting back to me. We’ve been using the `onUserVideoNetworkStatusChanged` event to detect poor connection quality already, and can see the “Good,” “Normal,” and “Bad” statuses firing. However, when a user goes into failover, we would expect the event to fire with a “None” status. It does not seem to do this. Can you provide any further clarification on how to use this event to detect that a user is in failover? ---
