External Release Notes: Android Mobile App v 9.12 (October 28, 2026)
New Features and Improvements
AI Assistant Suggestion in Search
When a multi-word query is entered in the search bar of the listing view, the app now detects whether the query is better suited to the AI Assistant than to a file search. If so, an Ask Assistant suggestion is displayed. Selecting it opens the AI Assistant with the query pre-populated. Single-word queries are not evaluated, and if detection is unavailable, the search continues as usual. Users without access to the AI Assistant do not see the suggestion.
Multi-Document Signature Requests
Multi-document Egnyte Sign requests opened from an email link are now completed within the Android app instead of in a browser. The signing view presents the envelope’s documents in sequence with a progress indicator and supports: signature, initials, date, text, checkbox, and radio button fields. A single consent confirmation is shown per envelope.
Save Media Copy to Device Library
A new setting in the Android app can automatically save a copy of each photo or video captured with the in-app camera to the device’s media library. The copy is saved at the moment of capture, so the media remains on the device even if the upload fails or connectivity is lost. The setting applies to the camera launched from the Create or Upload button and covers both photos and videos. It does not apply to media selected from the gallery. The setting is off by default.
