Settings and apps in iQ synced with my SMART account on every display
It would be very helpful if the entire display settings and app data available in iQ (wallpapers, language settings, app logins...) were synced with the Smart account (stored in Smart cloud) and it would transfer into every display that I log in to.
All display settings and installed apps are currently stored in the display after login. The only thing available on every displays after login is the data stored in the Lumio.
Are there ever plans to extend this to at least change the language settings and wallpaper on all displays where one logs in? The ideal situation would be to have all my applications and logins used in those apps "under" SMART login so it is available on all Smart displays.
Settings sync is currently in the backlog. We're hoping this will be another reason why users will want to sign in using their SMART Accounts.
App sync unfortunately will not be possible as there are many factors that will lead to this not working, such as: the board doesn't have enough space to install the app, the app isn't compatible with a particular board, the publisher of the app have withdrew the app from further distribution.

I also find this or a version of this very useful for administrators and teachers:
- Teachers travel through different classrooms in many schools (I can understand this, but not my case really)
- It is not uncommon that we need to factory reset a smartboard after a problem, this is frequently SMART's answer to fix some issues. But there is no way to recover the looks and settings teachers had before. AND when I do housekeeping during vacation time, sometimes a good factory reset is very useful; but then all accounts settings and "looks" are lost. In my case I care most about settings, but then in order to create their profiles again, they need to do this themselves and they have no clue on the settings we as IT are interested on having, and these settings cannot be pushed from SRM, since apparently they are more "Android" settings instead of "SMART settings". Without access to their accounts we are lost and we all have another chore that we need to do together so we make sure at least all important settings are applied.Another way I was thinking of is being able to create a trigger on profile creation so immediately after the proper configurations are applied. But then again, not all configurations needed to be set up are available on SRM.

Monitor MXv3 con iQ: sarebbe bello poter vedere le personalizzazioni fatte dopo l'accesso su tutti i monitor.
Occorrerebbe appoggiare le modifiche fatte su uno spazio cloud ed effettuare la sincronizzazione appena effettuato l'accesso su SMART iQ.
