The Amazon Chime SDK for Javascript now enables developers to support audio and video functionalities in a iOS WKWebView component. With support for WKWebView, developers can now use the Amazon Chime SDK for Javascript within a native iOS application's WKWebView component to enable audio and video capabilities. 

Builders no longer have to use two different Amazon Chime SDKs to support a native app and mobile browser experience on iOS. Instead of having to use the Amazon Chime SDK for iOS to create an Amazon Chime meeting natively on iOS, builders can create a browser-based meeting using the Amazon Chime SDK for JavaScript then load that meeting using a WKWebView that is part of a native iOS application. 

To get started using the Amazon Chime SDK for JavaScript with support for WkWebView, please see our iOS-WKWebView-sample.

The Amazon Chime SDK lets developers add real-time audio, video, and screen share capabilities to their web or mobile applications. To learn more about the Amazon Chime SDK, review the following resources:
