Hi everyone! I’ve got another big update for you! The big news with this update is an all-new Saved Websites feature! Now you can save as many websites as you’d like, and assign them each a title and an icon. Also, Schoolwork now has Subtasks! This has been a top user request, so I am excited to finally add this.

This should lead to a more reliable and consistent experience! - New icon selector for Classes and Saved Websites featuring ALL of Apple’s SF Symbols, the ability to search, and icon categories! - Added the ability to choose which app to use when sending an email from Classes or Settings, so you are no longer forced to use Apple Mail - You can also choose a default setting for Classes to avoid being asked every time, if you’d like - Rewrote all remaining legacy Settings views - Rewrote numerous other legacy views - Mac: the underlying system for Mac Accent Color has been rewritten to automatically support any new devices/colors, such as the new MacBook Neo - Redesigned the Google Classroom classwork details screen to match that of Schoolwork - Improved the website view in Saved Websites Bug Fixes: - Fixed a potential crash when leaving the app after using Saved Websites - Fixed grid view spacing on iOS 15 / 16 and macOS Monterey / Ventura - Fixed an issue where scrolling may not work intermittently on Mac - Fixed an issue where Class Details would use incorrect colors when opened as a separate window on iPad - Fixed a bug where if you selected Completed Schoolwork before regular Schoolwork, switching to regular would not show the due date headers - Fixed a bug where rotating into landscape on a Plus / Max iPhone while on the Dashboard screen would cause a crash - Fixed the ⌘ , shortcut for opening Settings - Fixed some design and navigation issues on older macOS versions, especially macOS Monterey - A few fixes and improvements to the visionOS interface - Many other general improvements and fixes Note: the minimum visionOS version for School Assistant is now visionOS 2.0.

Important Note: this will be the FINAL RELEASE to support iOS 15, iOS 16, macOS 12, and macOS 13. Only 2% of users are still running these versions, but it takes considerable time and effort for me to continue supporting them. Starting with the next release, iOS 17 / macOS 14 will be the minimum version. I apologize for any inconvenience. Please know, if you are still running those versions and are unable to update, the app will continue to work as it currently does!
