Thank you. Is it also possible to upload documents with the macOS extensions such as keynotes or pages?

It's something we wanted to add - to integrate the app more into the system. But, Microsoft screwed us by getting rid of Visual Studio for the Mac (Xamarin). So, now it isn't a simple thing as writing a new feature. The entire app must be redesigned to compile with 'VS Code'. The problem with doing that is that the app is using the Xamarin forms. So, every form must be migrated into calling Appkit directly or using Maui. Neither of which is a very good option. My inclination is to abandon Microsoft altogether and re-write the UI in SwiftUI. Which, if we did, would be way more supportable. The only issue with the Swiftui/.NET design would be performance. It would mean a lot of thunking between .NET and Appkit. So, the app would need to be designed in a way to limit the interactions. What we don't want to do is rewire the code entirely, using Swift or Objective C. Where that's also possible, it would be an entirely new app, which begs the question, "Is this the right app to build now?" This is where we are now. As you can imagine, no change is going to happen soon. I've started work (as a test) and have concluded that it would take at least 6 months to get it working without Xamarin. So, that's the stumbling block we're up against. Not saying it won't happen. But, it's not happening anytime soon. Sorry.
