Why does the "Launch External Tool" button show up for students using the iPad app?

For example, I am trying to embed video from Canvas studio into a course and the student view just shows a "Launch External Tool" button. And then it takes you to the video.  If I upload the video to youtube and embed it, it plays right within the app. 

I like the ease (mainly for many of my non-techy teachers in my building) of using Canvas studio, but without it playing directly in the app I will need to look at them uploading to youtube instead.

Thoughts or work arounds?

Any ideas?
