When I go to the browser to enter a hex code to change the colors it works. But when I go into the app all the colors are way darker then what I entered. Why is this happening? I enter bright colors and it works but not in the app.
Hi @TeagenWhite,
Just for clarity, do you mean you're trying to change the colors of the course cards on the Canvas dashboard? Once you change the color, you're seeing it display differently on the web tan it does on the Canvas app for your phone?
If the above is correct, my first suggestion would be to make sure the Canvas app is up to date. The second would be to ensure you're using "light mode" and not "dark mode" in the app, as I do believe Dark mode may now be adjusting colors in come cases to provide better contrast between a dark background and some colors. Finally, you could try uninstalling the Canvas app completely, and the redownloading it and logging back in. Occasionally there are times where something just gets "stuck" and a full reinstall gets everything back to normal again.
Hope this helps!

Hi, My school uses Canvas LMS for students to submit assignments, view course content, etc.; we then use Populi for student records. We also utilize the Canvas-to-Populi grade sync feature.

Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
I wonder if others have had this response, but I think it is troubling messaging for students that, no matter how well they may do on an assignment, they are given a signal that anything below a perfect score should be marked/denoted with a red color, as if those grades are poor, or even lesser. I think it is harmful for…
