Yes, I read about that through the info section on the app. that would be fine it there was a way to generate a new number through the app, but I can't imagine having to call customer service to issue a new number every time I want to make an online purchase or having to use google chrome. I'm not a fan of either option.
I don't even think that customer service can do it. The only option is Eno through the browser after logging in or with the Eno extension. Citi is similar in this regard - you can generate them through their website and they used to have a dedicated app they discontinued.
Capital One didn't used to let you make them from a browser without the extension but it seems now that they are merchant locking them, I can make them without my desktop.

Wait a minute, so you're using it straight through your browser without an extension? Which browser?

Safari on my iPhone. I just logged in, scrolled down, and it has a section for virtual cards like the app. I tapped that and hit the option to make a new one. I literally just decided to check, I had no idea this was there til now.

I have to go into the "I Want to" section to see anything about virtual numbers and it only gives the option to view my virtual number. I'm running iOS 14, so it's not like I'm running an old version either.
As I feared, seems to be a beta test. Capital One likes to enroll me in those for some reason. Well now you know what should be coming soon.

Ok, so you're special lol! Well, that is good that it's being tested. Looking forward to that feature in future. Thanks for your help.

I wish Capital One would at least email me when they set me up with these features. Never would have even thought to check if you hadn't brought up the annoyance of being forced to use Eno.
