With all due respect to the designers of canvas, this new update is completely unnecessary, and makes it 10x harder to get through the school year. The previous design was perfect: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!! The fact that you can’t mark assignments as done, and especially that when it is past the due date (even when…
My IOS canvas app is v.8.1.0 right now and I opened the app to check my to do list and its not working the way it always has. I do not have the ability to remove things from my to do list and things that I have submitted already are not being removed from my to do list. I also have no notifications for assignments that are…
Bring back the filter for sections. Bring back the ability to see if an assignment is late--and now, I cannot write on my iPad to make notes on the student's assignments. I'm not sure what you did in the upgrade, but it needs to be immediately reversed. MAKE OUR APP WORK AGAIN!

Parents are reporting that they see a Lock symbol on the top left of course cards on the iOS app. Last year they were able to see the student's total grade, but this year it is a lock. I cannot figure out where to change this. Neither can ChatGPT. The one major change from last year to this year is the fact that all our…
I just logged on and Canvan is refreshed with this year's class. is there a way to see last school year's grade that with details of each period? Thanks Cathleen
Hello Everyone, I'm Namrata Hinduja from Geneva, Swiss. Since updating to UI 7.0, I haven’t been able to access my to-do list—it just shows an "oops" error. I’ve already tried everything I could think of: logging out, starring courses, restarting my device, clearing the cache, reinstalling the app, and even removing the…
I would like to be able to see my canvas grades whenever I click on a graded notification in the notification tab. Currently it just shows the submission and rubric but I would like to see what grade I earned on it without having to navigate all the way back into grades
I have 3 children in the same school system. When using the mobile app it list all 3 children's classes. They are not organized and they are all jumbled together. They run by class period, then A or B day, and then alphabetical. I have a 12th grader, 11th grader, and 7th grader. There are simple additional filters that…
