These are the final release notes for the January 2026 release of TextAid. Items marked with an asterisk (*) were not in the preliminary release notes.
Released: 2026-01-26
New Features and Changes
Select Theme (Beta)
We have added two new themes to TextAid. This is a beta feature for the time being so it’s not guaranteed to be bug-free, users can revert back to the original theme during the beta. The original theme is still the default, but we will change it to a new one in a coming update. #11781
Please Note: The theme selector will be included in this update, but it will not be visible until additional themes have been added. This will happen in the weeks following the release. An in-app notification will be displayed when they are available.
Press Enter key to Create a Folder in the Library
It is now possible to press the Enter key when creating a folder in the library. Prior to this update, Enter would only return the user to the start page. #10807
New Translation Language: Latin American Spanish
Latin American Spanish (es-419) has been added as a translation language. #11290
Notable Corrections
Library: Wrong folder is displayed
After performing one of these actions, the root folder would open instead of the current folder:
- Uploading a new document.
#11884 - Creating a new folder.
#11889
Library: Breadcrumb Trail not Updated Correctly
The breadcrumb trail would not update correctly when navigating from the library root to the first folder level. This has been fixed now. #11759, #11883
Welsh Translation Missing Phrases
Some missing phrases has been added to the Welsh translation of the UI. #11799
Blank Pages when Handing in Exam
PDFs handed in as exams could contain blank pages due to a bug in the pdf generator. This has been addressed. #11814
Exams Submitted Automatically
When there were overlapping exams, the second exam would be automatically submitted when the first one was manually submitted. This has now been fixed. #12006
