@Gassim Until now almost everything for me is amazing, especially the responsive screen on Android Capture🤩! This is interestingly amazing!

Amazing new features, so interesting.

I am excited about the dashboard slideshow feature, does it have auto play? From which DHIS2 version is this feature?

I am also curious on how the linked stages work. Is the linkage related to data collection or analysis?

I was also curious if this Dashboard slideshow feature could work offline. I believe it would be :face_with_hand_over_mouth:.

It was something much needed in some offices which wanted to have slideshow of some highlighted indicators.

Am so excited to take a trial tour on this feature.

The new way for building Dashboard plugins is really a game changer. As a developer, am so excited to explore this new way to extend DHIS2 :hugs:!

Hi @bridget :slight_smile:

:slight_smile: Thanks for sharing. Yes, and I can’t wait to see people posting in the CoP about using them. :grin::grin::folded_hands:

It’s available from version 2.40 and above. You can read the details here: Dashboard app version 101.0.0 is now available - support for dashboard plugins built with app platform and more

Someone asked the same question before :slight_smile: Maybe we could create a feature request. For now, there’s a workaround to make autoplay work: Dashboard app v100.4 is now available - Improved UX and DB Slideshow - #6 by Gassim
