It works in Zoom, Quicktime, and all my other apps. The next time I tried to start virtual cam in OBS it prompted me for my password, installed the plug-in and started right up. I manually created a folder path for /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/ in the system library folder not my user library folder and it worked.

I then had a hunch that the reason OBS couldn't start the virtual cam after it prompted me for my admin password was that the folder it was expecting to install the now included (in V26) virtualcam plug-in into wasn't there.

So, if you haven't tried that yet, it's possible that's all you need to get Zoom to recognize the Snap Camera.When I went to triple check that I had properly deleted the now deprecated plugin from /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/ I noticed the folder was gone. You should typically restart your computer when you install new desktop applications, because if you don't there may be potential communication issues. It's also possible your system needs a full reboot. If you happened to leave Zoom open during your Snap Camera installation, it's possible Zoom isn't recognizing Snap Camera as an input. One reason Snap Camera may not be working on Zoom is that you haven't restarted your programs. However, if you've done all of those steps and it still isn't working, there's no reason to throw in the towel. Next, go to the Video tab on the lefthand side, and then select Snap Camera where it says 'Camera.' You should then see a Snapchat Lens on your Zoom screen. Then, open the Zoom desktop application and go to Settings, which is a little gear icon in the top righthand corner. If you haven't downloaded the Snap Camera yet, you'll want to go to the download page and complete the installation.Īfter installing Snap Camera, make sure you close any other webcam platforms. Snapchat's desktop application works with other video conferencing platforms without much trouble. Ideally, the Snap Camera should work easily with Zoom. If you can't get Snapchat on Zoom, here's what you should check before giving up. While the Snapchat Lens feature is super easy to use once you have it set up, you might run into some issues when you try to first get it going.

Using Snapchat filters on your Zoom calls kicks your video chats up a notch.
