    Description

      We need some settings in Moodle for disabling plugins/features in the app.

      This has been requested several times (including partners). It will be useful on sites with heavy customizations or some features disabled via custom scripts or similar.

      We can add this new settings under Administration > Mobile app > Mobile features
