Is there a way to bind ZeroTier with the Android Blue Iris app?
EDIT - I'm tired and cross-eyed after a bunch of internet searching and rabbit holes... A supposed ZeroTier dev said on April 25, 2023 that this would be addressed in a future release of the app in this thread: https://github.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne/issues/1952. On August 10th, another engineer said that they are waiting for a car to be delivered.

Sounds like your install is hosed in some way. This is beyond my knowledge, you should take this to the Zerotier forum (they barely monitor Reddit, as the automated comment said). Or search GitHub, eg this guy might be having the same issue as you: https://github.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne/issues/1856
