Symptom

If you are using the Outlook app on an Android device and trying to access a One-Click session, a notification will appear that permission for the camera and microphone was denied.

If on an iOS device and you are trying to access a One-Click session, a notification will appear that the browser is not supported.

Browser Not Supported message

 

Possible Causes

The Outlook mail app does not have the ability to launch One-Click. Because our system cannot detect the Outlook app on an Android phone, the error message may be misleading: One-Click would not be able to access the camera and microphone because Outlook itself does not have the ability to access the camera or microphone. 

 

On an iPhone, we display the correct error, that the browser is not supported.

 

You would need to switch to another browser on your device to start/join a session.
