Hello, So, I have a perspective application running on a tablet (Microsoft surface) there is a page that requires the barcode which would use the tablets camera to scan the barcode. I get this error in the web browsers inspect element and have noticed this does not work in the 'perspective workstation' client either. ![cropped-sealer-error](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/c/9/c94bc899e0b29da2d2a51b04ff05a9c5182c366a.png) Is there some way to make the tablet recognizable mobile or is this not supported? ---

Microsoft surface isn't running Android or iOS, so it isn't mobile. Perspective Workstation may eventually support this, but I haven't seen any progress reports on camera support in quite a while.
