Moodle Mobile 3.5 was released with new features, from General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliance to visual layout and responsiveness enhancements; 7 critical bugs were fixed and dozens of issues were addressed to make the latest upgrade Moodle’s most ambitious mobile play yet. On the app stores for Android and iOS, the app will no longer appear as Moodle Mobile, just ‘Moodle.’

The bulk of the development was related to the upgrade of the technology powering Moodle Mobile, namely Ionic 3. The framework offers an open-source set of tools for cross-platform, screen-responsive mobile development, built in the JavaScript language.

Templates, performance optimization, and easy access to mobile-specific resources (sensors, cameras, etc.) explain its place among the most popular mobile and hybrid frameworks today. The upgrade required the migration of more than 15 core activities to Ionic 3, from the Front Page and Calendar to the Preferences page, Notifications, and Learning Tool Interoperability (LTI).

Key New Features

Here is a breakdown of everything new in Moodle 3.5 for mobile:

To access a Moodle site through mobile apps, admins must enable mobile services. The current version of the Moodle app, 3.5.0 is available for sites running Moodle 3.1 onward. Previous sites can enable Moodle Mobile access through the now called ‘Moodle Classic app.

Users will find a message when trying to access old sites from the new app, or new sites from Moodle Classic. The Moodle 3.5.0 app works for devices running iOS 8 or Android 4.4 or newer.
