  • :bust_in_silhouette: Refreshed Profile Menu: We’ve given the profile menu a clean new look! The logout option is now conveniently placed at the top beside the teacher’s name, and “Switch Teacher” has been renamed to “Exit” for better clarity.

:hammer_and_pick:Behind-the-Scenes Improvements:

  • Fixed Auto-Save: Resolved the auto-save issue that caused the app to hang. A notification now prompts users to create a new whiteboard after saving.
  • Enhanced Whiteboard Import: Whiteboards can now be imported multiple times for repeated use.

:bulb:Pro Tip: Try the new “Auto-Naming” feature - it’s a real time-saver when you’re creating multiple whiteboards in a session!
