We know that many of you do your homework on your iPad using the Firefly app, so we've made it easier for you to attach files and interact with tasks.
If you're using Firefly on an iPad, you can now drag and drop any file into Firefly to attach it to a task. If you've saved your homework on your iPad, you can use the split screen view to show Firefly alongside another app, such as Files. If the other app you're using supports it, you can drag any file straight into a task to immediately send it to your teacher. If you've written an answer in another app, such as the Notes app, you can drag and drop your text into a task to send it as a comment to a teacher.
If you want to save something from Firefly, such as an image or feedback from your teacher, you can also drag and drop it out of Firefly into another app.
