I am the founder of [OASIS](https://theoasis.com/), a startup that makes AI avatars for Zoom and other streaming platforms using a virtual webcam. We want to build a Zoom App using the camera feature in the [Zoom App Layers AP](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/zoom-apps/guides/layers-api/). Is it possible to call the Layers API within the official Zoom mobile app on iPhone & Android, or is the API only available on the desktop app? The provided documentation offers no clear documentation. ---

@oasis Currently, we don’t support Zoom Apps in our mobile clients but we are working to bring this in the future. I pinged our team to see if what the process is to get set up with our beta and will let you know when I hear back from them. ---

@oasis It looks like we don’t have a beta program available for mobile right now. However, the APIs and SDKs will be similar so I was advised that starting with a build for the desktop client could be the best route for now. ---

Pls do let me know when you get this working on mobile. For us, the ability to run on mobile is probably the difference between us actually building a Zoom App vs not.
