# Feature Details

## 1. Connect Layout Key Update

Updated the Connect Layout key from `Connect_user` to `connect_user`.

### Updated Behavior

- The layout now uses the standardized `connect_user` key.
- Updated the layout configuration to use the new key.

## 2. Conditional Connect Layout Visibility

Improved the Connect Layout visibility logic to display the layout only when relevant host data is available for the current page.

### Updated Behavior

- The Connect Layout renders when at least one host is associated with the current page.
- If no hosts are associated with the page, the layout is not rendered.
- This prevents empty Connect Layout sections from appearing in the application.

## 3. App Update Popup: Cancel Button

Added a **Cancel** button to the application update popup.

### Updated Behavior

- Users can dismiss the update popup using the Cancel button.
- Users can close the popup without proceeding with the update at that moment.
- The update can be initiated later according to the application's existing update flow.
