This aligns with our goal of providing a modern video experience on SharePoint as we move towards retiring Stream Classic. See more details here.
**Upload from Camera roll capability will be brought back to the revamped mobile app but will only for SharePoint videos.

If you still need to upload videos to the Classic app, use the Classic Stream web portal on mobile or desktop. See Stream portal upload.
FAQs
Q.
Does the new Stream mobile app work on Android tablets and iPads?
A. The Stream mobile app is optimized to work seamlessly on tablet devices.
Q.
Will I still have access to my Stream Classic content?
A. Yes. Just use the switcher on the app’s left pane to navigate between the two portals: Stream Classic and Stream on SharePoint. The new Stream mobile app will continue to support both sources until we fully retire Stream Classic.
Q.
When will upload and offline download be available in the new Stream mobile app?
A. These popular features are planned for implementation by early 2023. Note that many forthcoming features will be only for SharePoint-stored videos. This aligns with the goal of providing you the best possible modern video experience via SharePoint as we move toward retiring Stream Classic. Learn more here: The new version of Stream.
Q.
There are certain legacy features that I need to keep using. Can I continue to use the Classic app?
A. You can continue to use the legacy app by forestalling your update to the new app. Be sure turn off auto-update on your device to avoid any inadvertent background update. Once updated, you cannot return to the classic app. We will eventually fully retire the classic app. Be assured that we will provide advance notification so you can be ready for the update.
