To-Do List Differences (Android vs. iOS)

Ah, the age-old debate between Android and Apple...

Anyone have insight as to why the To-Do List on Android displays dates in the To-Do List and has a filtering button while that feature is not available on iOS? I would love to see those dates added into the iOS app. See the blue arrows on my Android photo if you are curious what I am referring to.

@ehills ...

I don't have insights as to why the views are different between iOS and Android. However, if you wanted to see things changed in the iOS app, you could submit this as a new idea here in the Community so that it could be evaluated...and maybe even someday implemented by Instructure (the folks that make Canvas). If you check out this document, you'll see a bunch of links under the heading "Ideas and Themes". These Guides will direct you on how the idea process works and how to submit an idea for consideration.

I hope this will help in some way. Good luck!
