Using a Webcam for Video Chat

[Android Central Question]

Hey everyone! I totally love my setup with Dex. However, I really want to be able to use a webcam as well for video calls. I typically use an app called Zoom for my video chats.

I bought a USB webcam and I can install apps to use the camera. However, I'm not sure how to get it work with the Zoom app or FB messenger.

Any thoughts? If I can get this to work, then I will have zero need for a traditional PC!

Thank you so much!

Unfortunately that's up to the app to include support for. External cameras don't work the same way as they do with a PC, so the app itself must have the 'drivers' and ability to use them. If Zoom doesn't have that, then you won't be able to use anything other than the built-in cameras.
