Moodle App features
The following features are available to organisations depending on the Moodle App plan they subscribe to.
Active devices for Push notifications
Calculated monthly, this is the number of unique user devices actively receiving push notifications from a Moodle site.
For example, for a site with 200 users enrolled and using the app with one device configured to receive push notifications, the potential number of active devices per month will be 200.
Multimedia Push notifications
For Android only, the Push notifications received by your users can include images. Similar messages will be grouped, for example, when receiving private messaging notifications. Requires activation via the Moodle Apps Portal.
Custom site listing in search results
Enable users to find your site by name when logging in to the app, removing the need to type the full URL of your site. You can configure how the results are displayed in the “Site finder” in the Moodle Apps Portal, including adding an image for your site and additional information.
QR login
Your users will be able to log in to the app by scanning a QR login, available on their Moodle site profile. Requires activation in your Moodle site's administration settings, and is compatible with Moodle LMS 3.9 and later.
Biometric login
Streamline login for your users with fingerprint or Face ID authentication. For enhanced security, your users will be prompted to perform a regular standard login at intervals determined by your Moodle site's security settings. Requires activation via the Moodle Apps Portal, and individual user setup.
Offline courses per device per site
This feature allows users to download entire courses for offline access. Depending on the app plan, there will be varying limits on the number of courses users can download.
The amount of individual activities and resources that users are allowed to download is unlimited.
Basic branding
Using an online tool in the Moodle Apps Portal, organisations can customise the colour palette of their site in the Moodle App (including the login screen). Requires activation via the Moodle Apps Portal.

- Custom language strings: you can customise the app's language strings.
For more details, visit Moodle app guide for admins.
