Zoom appears to have been granted access to a previously unknown iPad software feature that allows camera access during Split View multitasking, one developer claims.

The feature was discovered by mobile developer Jeremy Provost, who said that he was “surprised to see that Zoom had somehow been able to tap into using the camera during iPad Split View multitasking.” That currently isn’t an API-level feature for developers, and Apple has not made any announcement related to the functionality.

Provost notes that it’s useful for teleconferencing, since it allows users to view notes or presentations while on a video call.

Provost said his team reached out to Zoom and the teleconferencing company responded, revealing the existence of an apparently “private process” open to a select number of developers.
