With regard to the IOS SDK - Why can’t we join a Webinar, that doesn’t have a password enabled? (No registration is enabled). Works fine on Android and web SDKs Latest version of the SDK. Steps to reproduce the behavior: 1. Try to join a webinar , without a password set Happens on all IOS devices ---

Hi @mb_j, Thanks for using Zoom SDK. I have just tested the scenario you are mentioning without the iOS SDK demo app and I am able to join a webinar that does not have a password and does not require registration. ![Screen Shot 2020-06-17 at 9.58.08 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/2X/a/a51b9f3c615e0c22b9bc33f3b354e97890ecbd2a.png) Please note that webinar password and registration are 2 separate options while scheduling a webinar. Please have a try with our demo app. Thanks! ---

Thanks Carson, but I do not understand your answer. I fully understand the options on a meeting. My problem is, in the IOS SDK , not without it. I need to know, why, when **using the IOS SDK** , I CANNOT join a webinar that doesn’t have a password. I already know I can do this in the Android SDK and Web SDK. But not in IOS. This is a relatively big issue for us and our customers, so I was wondering if we are missing something or if this is a bug in the the IOS SDK. Further, with the IOS sample app, we cannot join a meeting or a webinar, that doesn’t have a password. Please check. ---
