VirtuApp (Android) - Version 10.12

Android Release Notes

Build Version: 10.12
Release Date: 20 july 2026
Platform: Android
Release Type: Feature Enhancement & UI Improvements

Overview

This release enhances the Custom Header feature by improving its layout behavior and extending its customization capabilities.

The update resolves header layout issues and provides greater flexibility in displaying background images, titles, subtitles, and user greetings while maintaining a consistent user interface across the application.

Enhancements

Custom Header Improvements

The existing Custom Header feature has been enhanced with several UI and functionality improvements.

UI Improvements

  • Fixed the issue where page content initially appeared behind the Custom Header.
  • Improved the overall layout rendering to ensure the page starts below the header with proper spacing.
  • Enhanced the visual alignment of header components.

Header Content Enhancements

The Custom Header now supports dynamic rendering of:

  • Background Image
  • Title
  • Subtitle
  • Default User Greeting

These elements automatically adjust based on the data configured in the VirtuBox Console.

Header Behaviour

The Custom Header automatically adjusts its appearance based on the combination of configured header properties. The following table describes the resulting behaviour.

Background Image Title Subtitle Display Result
✗ ✗ ✗ Displays the default title.
✗ ✓ ✗ Displays the configured title.
✗ ✗ ✓ Displays the default title along with the configured subtitle.
✗ ✓ ✓ Displays the configured title and subtitle.
✓ ✗ ✗ Displays only the background image.
✓ ✓ ✗ Displays the background image with the configured title.
✓ ✗ ✓ Displays the background image with the configured subtitle.
✓ ✓ ✓ Displays the background image with both the configured title and subtitle.

Default Title

When no custom title is provided, VirtuApp automatically displays a default greeting.

Behaviour:

  • Logged-in user
Hi <User Name>

Example

Hi Nityam
  • Guest user
Hi User

This behaviour is automatic and requires no additional configuration.

How to Use

  1. Open the VirtuBox Console.

  2. Navigate to the required page.

  3. Configure the Custom Header.

  4. Optionally configure:

    • Background Image
    • Title
    • Subtitle

  5. Save the page.

  6. Sync or publish the project.

  7. Open the page in VirtuApp.

The header will automatically render according to the configured values.
For more details, see the Version 10.7 documentation.

This package contains:

  • Header models
  • Header content parsing
  • Header styles

Header Rendering

The complete UI rendering logic is implemented inside:

  • Dynamic subtitle rendering
  • Background image handling
  • Default greeting generation

Default Greeting Logic

When no custom title is configured:

  • Logged-in users automatically see:
Hi <First Name>
