**Description** Hi, I have a React Native Application (IOS and Android). Is it no longer possible to directly open the Zoom native application? I notice that the Client URL Schemes are deprecated [1]. [1] Client URL Schemes [https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/client-url-schemes](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/client-url-schemes) ---

Hi @darragh.duffy, thanks for the post. You are correct that the client URL schemes are deprecated, but this only means that you should not be generating/modifying the client URLs yourself. If you get a join URL directly from Zoom, that URL can still be used to join the meeting and will be handled by the Zoom app. Thanks! ---

Thanks Jon for the update.
