PebblePad has now expanded the ability for users to search for tags that have been added to Assets to include when adding Assets to workbooks and creating hyperlinks in pages. This change increases the usefulness of tags within PebblePad and creates more support and flexibility on how users utilize Assets.

You can now mark your most important Assets and Resources as Favorites to access them more easily. Items marked as Favorite will appear on the Favorite tile on the dashboard and in the Favorite store within the user’s store. There is no limit to the number of Favorites a user can have, though only the first nine will appear on their dashboard.
