When you receive a collaborator's notes via Live Layers, a small text box appears at the top of each page with the Layer Name — only visible when you're viewing that received layer.

If you'd rather not see that header, you can turn it off globally.

Turn off the Received Name Header

1. Open Settings. Tap the three-dot menu (...) at the top right, then tap Settings.

2. Turn off the Received Name Header. Tap the Live Layers tab, then toggle off Received name header.

Clear the header from existing received layers

If you want the header gone from layers you've already received, you'll need to delete and resync them:

1. Delete the Received Layer;

2. At the bottom of the Layers window, tap the Refresh icon:

3. When prompted, tap Yes to resync the Layer.

You'll see the header is gone.
