Button to create a Jitsi meet is missing on Mobile

[VincentSC]

This issue is mostly copied from mattermost/mattermost-mobile#5837 by @Mannshoch, as it was suggested by @larkox to open an issue here.

Summary

In the webbrowser (desktop and mobile phone) and desktop app there is a possibility to create a Jitsi Meeting. But in the Andoid App from App-store this button is missing - probably also in the iOS app, but that has not been verified.

Environment Information

Device Name: Galaxy S10
OS Version: Android
Mattermost App Version: 1.48.0
Mattermost Server Version: 6.01

Steps to reproduce

It's not possibility to create a Jitsi meeting in the Android app via a button. The work-around is to type in /jitsi, but a button is preferred.

Expected behavior

Ability to create a Jitsi meeting in the Android app.

Observed behavior (that appears unintentional)

The webbrowser and desktop app show a button. The webbrowser on phone shows a link somewhere. But the Android app does not show any link or button to create a Jitsi call. If another person presses the Meeting button, a link appears in the mobile app.

@VincentSC The meeting can be started from the mobile app by running /jitsi start. What are your thoughts on this?

As I described in the issue:

any update on a button?

I can confirm the workaround /jitsi works but my users are normies and are very lost with the slash commands.
Even /poll is too hard for them.
A lot of my users use only smartphone and not the desktop.
Having a nice button would help a lot.
