I can access all of my course materials on the app on my phone, but when I try using my laptop the course will not show up.
Colton,
My guess is that when you access Canvas on a computer the view is defaulting to the "To-Do List" view. In this view instead of showing links to your courses the content is displayed based on assignment due dates and the like. If your instructors have not put due dates on things, don't have assignments, or there is just nothing coming up in the next few days you might not see much.
Try clicking the Courses button on the left side of Canvas and see if your courses are listed. This is one way to access your courses directly, even if they are not showing in your Dashboard. Better yet, you can change your default view in the web interface to Card View which will make it look more similar to what you are seeing in the mobile app. To change the view click the Kabob icon (3 dots) in the upper right corner of Canvas and select Card View.
I'm also including a few links below which might help.
How do I view my favorite courses in the Card View Dashboard as a student?
How do I use the to-do list for all my courses in the List View Dashboard as a student?
How do I view all my Canvas courses as a student?

I have the opposite situation. I can see my course on my computer but not my tablet. The basic functionality is just not there. On my tablet I've logged out, cleared cookies, restarted, logged back in. Still the same nonsense. It actually shows two courses I'm not even enrolled in.

Is there a trick to importing a rubric when using the Canvas rubric template? I download the csv file and fill in the Canvas Rubric template from the Enhanced Grading feature and nothing happens when I try to upload it. It only shows the file name, but not it's size. Yes, it is still a CSV. I've tried removing all symbols…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
