Hello, I am currently having an issue with the Canvas Student mobile app on IOS. Last night, the app was working as normal until this morning. When I try to open the app, it instantly kicks me out and closes the app. I have been trying to open it successfully throughout the day but it just keeps closing out. I am not sure…
I've been a Canvas-using educator for the better part of the last ten years. I have sung its praises and made disciples of other educators... However, in the recent past, the Canvas Mobile App's Speed Grader has stopped allowing users to filter student results by section. I don't know who made that decision, but I promise…
Hello I want to change the settings and update the app language to English on canvas on my iPad (it’s in Spanish right now). The desktop version of canvas says my preferred language is English, which is my desired preference for the app as well, but the app is just not changing, It’s still in Spanish. I have logged out…
Is there a way to move to the next student while grading in the Canvas Teacher app? I swear I could last fall, but this fall I cannot seem to see how.

Hi! Our school is new to using Canvas--so far we're loving it--and I just got the mobile app for iOS but am noticing an issue with my calendars. The mobile app shows all of my calendars that are course-connected. However, on mobile, one of my calendars (listed under 'other calendars' on the web version), does not show up…
In the Canvas Teacher app, suddenly the 'grading panel' is open by default every time I open a student paper. This is so frustrating/time-consuming, as I now have to close the panel, then select the pen icon so I can write on the paper. I would love to be able to set a default state individually, but if that isn't…
On Mac, Canvas widgets include a full range of options. However, on iOS, To-Do List (is Limited, only shows a few announcements) + grades and other options do not exist when it comes to widgets. Is this something that is being worked on or can be added to a request list? I feel like this would be extremely valuable to…
Hi, my Canvas To-Do list is not showing any assignments, but when I go into each course’s Assignments page, I can see they have due dates. I have refreshed the app, logged out and back in, and my courses are starred. Can you notify me when this issue is fixed? Thank you
Recently, my canvas app updated and changed the To-Do list interface. Previously, the mobile canvas had a list of assignments due within the next week. I loved this feature and used it to organize my schoolwork for the upcoming week. Now, the mobile To-Do list resembles the browser canvas To-Do list. It contains not only…
