Using External Devices with Android App

So I have an external webcam and want to use it for teams on my Android Device, but the App doesn't seem to have an option for Device Information so that I can change it. Is this meant to be this way or is there a way to get external webcams to work on the Android Microsoft Teams?

    Jpine I haven't been able to get this to work, I don't believe it is possible. I hope they add this eventually as I can see a number of use cases this would benefit.

      JacobSimonI figured as much, but I thought to ask the community first because I agree there would be some useful applications for this.

        Jpine My favorite use case would be for a BYOD meeting room with a type C cable connected to audio, video, and display. In a perfect world, this would work with laptops tablets and smartphones.
