Private Files

Hi guys,

We have long ago turned off private files repositories for users in our Moodle site, but today I noticed that the Moodle Desktop and Mobile apps both have a dedicated "Files" button which still allows users to upload and curate 'private' files, as well as to navigate down into any category or course and view files directly there.

How can I configure the site so that the app does not provide this functionality? Why would the app ignore the intended configuration of the website?

Hi Adam,

You can remove Files from the app by selecting it in Disabled features via Site admin / Mobile app / Mobile features.
