How can I make my android developed app make group video call through the google hangouts which is installed on the client.

Skype provode the Uri to allow the developer to make a one to one video call. But the Uri in skype can not make group video call. Therefore, i am woundring if google hangouts provide the developer an api to link the android app with the hangouts to make group video call.

Based on my research till now. There is no Hangouts api for Android.

In addition, Skype uri for android is only for one to one video call.

Therefor, I used the ooVoo Video Chat SDK to import the group video chat in my application. For more information go to this link https://developers.oovoo.com/docs[^]

In addition, you can find other vendors that provide video chat SDK from this link https://bloggeek.me/missing-webrtc-paas-report/[^] .

Thanks,
