Are you using the simulator or a physical device?

Hey @wbaroudi,

Can you reproduce the issue one more time and then obtain the SDK logs from that instance? You can send them to me via email to [DeveloperSupport@zoom.us](mailto:DeveloperSupport@zoom.us). Please mention my name and a link to this post in your email. Instructions for obtaining logs can be found here: [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/iOS/mastering-zoom-sdk/sdk-initialization](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/iOS/mastering-zoom-sdk/sdk-initialization). Those instructions are technically for the meeting SDK, but the steps are the same.

Thanks!  
Michael
