Google hangout button on iphone - google-plus

The new google hangout button enables to embed hangouts on websites, but it is not supported by iphone .
Google + iphone app enables hangouts with iphone devices.
Is there a way to use a hangout on iphone with the hangout button?

At this time you cannot launch hangouts on mobile devices using the hangout button.
Mobile devices can only use hangouts from the native mobile applications.

I believe that you could load it via a UIWebView loaded on a users's page or just loaded on a specific page design of yours including your hangout button?

How to play admob ads in a video player but NOT as full screen?

I'm developing an app with react native to deploy to iOS and Android. I have a video player in my app (looks similar to Youtube's UI when not in landscape mode).
Is there a way to play Google Admob ads in the video player without it going full screen? I want Admob ads to play in the same way ads play in the Youtube mobile app.
You could use Google Admob's native video ads. This allows you to customise the look of the video ad.

Native way to inform user there is a mobile app?

Often when viewing a website on a mobile device you'll get a notification that a mobile app is available, or if you already have the app downloaded you'll have the option to open the URL in the app.
Is there a native way to do this or are these notifications always custom?
When users click on a link or download a file and the suggestion pops up to open the respective app, that's called deep linking. iOS labels it as Universal Links and Android uses App Links.

Quickblox, Video chat for PC/Mac, options other than WebRTC

Are there options to make a video chat app for PC/mac using quickblox but not WebRTC?
The business case is to provide video chat facility from iPhone/iPad with a user on pc/Mac.
We do not want to use WebRTC..
So i went ahead and did a POC to test the capabilities of quickblox, well bluntly put, it does not support native ios app to call a web based app.
However i then explored OpenTok which actually works cross platform, atleast from iOS to web.
My problem solved.

Direct link for vimeo video

I'm developing a Windows Phone App and I want to play Vimeo video in the App. But I have an issue, Windows Phone Apps can't embed player, so player will open in browser. I don't like that it opens external app, I would like that users stay in my app.
How can I get direct link for playing Vimeo video in my own video player?
I got email from Vimeo support.
