Session Controls and Display Enhancements

SmartMirror UI and Layout Redesign

The visual and structural redesign for SmartMirror is here, making it clearly distinct from other Montage flavours. This phase is cosmetic and structural only. Menus have been repositioned, button layouts updated, and the participant and grid views refreshed. Interactive elements (clickable connection pills, QR codes) are planned for a future phase.


Session ID visibility control

Teachers can now toggle the visibility of the session ID on the receiver screen separately for shared-screen and floating-ID contexts, so it no longer obstructs shared content. Session ID over a shared screen is off by default.


Fill Display option for full-screen sharing

A new "Fill Display" option lets the client temporarily match its resolution to the main display during screen sharing, so shared content fills the screen instead of leaving black bars when aspect ratios differ.


Android 16 target SDK support

Montage now supports Android 16 as the target SDK, ensuring correct behaviour on devices running Android 16. Note: previous versions still work on Android 16; this just updates the target to remain compliant with future updates.
