Version 8.8.1 (2 variants)
Updated 6 months ago
Changelog In this update, we're addressing frequent logouts based on your feedback. While these logouts may seem like an issue they're a new security feature required by some institutions. We're making a temporary change that allows for longer sessions.
Please be aware that institutions requiring IL4 certification will have a default 25-minute session timeout in the future, which we can't alter. We appreciate your patience as we work towards a solution that meets everyone's needs for a smoother experience

• Institutions can now manage message availability. Users will see improvements in Messages, making it easier to spot new/unread messages.
• On the grades landing page, users can view overall course grades.
• When an admin specifies an inactive session duration, the app doesn't auto-renew. Users receive notifications prior to logout. This adjustmentensures compliance with security certification and is configured by the institution.
