I'm currently building an online tutoring app to help solve my country's crisis in education.

To do this, I need to integrate a video calling service. I'd prefer to use Hangouts over other services since it is based on webRTC and its free. However after much searching, I haven't found anything that explicitly states whether or not its possible to integrate it natively or through a webview. Do you have any ideas on how to go about doing this or if its even possible?

Thank you so much! :)

Unfortunately there is no way to integrate this functionality yet, the hangout API is web based and since hangout requires the camera there is no way to enable this from a webview.
