How long will the "Switch to Old Files Page" button be active?

[Matt_Underwood]

Hello to the good folks at Instructure,

With the launch of the New Files Page, is there a timeline for how long the option to revert to the original interface will remain? I see in the release notes that this button is slated to be temporary.

A concern has been raised that the combination of the new format's larger font size, dividers between each file, and limiting the files-per-page to 25 make it more cumbersome to navigate the list, as less files are visible on the screen at once.

Thanks for reaching out on the Instructure Community!

The revert button will exist until the end of 2025. You can check out more information in this article here! https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/The-Product-Blog/A-Simpler-More-Accessible-Canvas-Files-Experienc...
