Very Convenient

It is a good app. But, it needs an edit button so we can go into our discussions and fix them. Also, needs an update on the to-do list because it doesn't take off what you already have. An option that should be put on this applicaton is the whole selection of our grades, as in seperation of assignments, labs, quizzes and finals. Please fix and update to make this better.

My school just switched from desire to learn. This app just looks and navigates clunky. Not sure if it's because I'm an android user, but it doesn't fill the screen right so the content is tiny in the middle of the screen. I have a galaxy s7.

H70%
by H####:

The app needs to show show how your grade compares to others in class just like web version does. Also, announcements should have a full timestamp displayed with them (Date, Hour, Mins, Sec) "by default" no matter whether viewing them in list view or while reading them individually. Currently, while reading announcement no timestamp is shown. Please fix this. Thanks.

Every time I try to submit an assignment, it crashes. This is not cool to discover when something is due!

M70%

I tried to use Canvas for ACP lessons and observations. The lessons were unusable (I could not get ANY course content), and the observation videos kept freezing and making me start over from the beginning. I wasted over an hour trying to study on this app and got nothing accomplished or credited.

V70%
by V####:

The app isn't as organized as it should be. It's harder to navigate than it should be. Considering this plus my teacher's inability to organize their courses, it makes an overall annoying experience.

P70%
by P####:

Mostly great, but it in tests / quizzes for some reason the pictures never appear, and they are really hard to scroll when they do appear if ever.

G70%
by G####:

There were a few game breaking bugs that didn't allow me to submit assignments. Thanks for the relatively quick fixes!

Keeps crashing on my Samsung Galaxy s2 tablet. Almost unusable.

M70%
by M####:

Quizzes do not show correctly and attachments sometimes not at all.

N70%
by N####:

Required for school, but the app makes things easier. Easy updates and options to personalize. Kinda wish it was a little simpler.

I am using tablet, i would preffered if you gave us option to download files and let us store and save the files in SD card

M70%
by M####:

Great app but is only a supplement to the online version as you can't do all of the same things like see grade comparisons

M70%
by M####:

Does most I want to do on a mobile device to keep in touch, and I've even successfully taken quizzes. However, there's an apparent regression: tapping notifications no longer opens the app to the correct page. Also, text entry fields are not set to allow autocorrect, making for a frustrating experience. I've reported this in the past and it's literally a matter of adding some text to an XML file so you lose a star for that. I'd love to give you back that star so hopefully it will be fixed soon.

This app was amazing but when it recently updated, accessing menus has become harder and it just doesn't work as smooth as it did. Quite disappointed in this update.

M70%
by M####:

This app is great! It has its moments when it lags or doesn't want to load but that hasn't happened in a while

D70%
by D####:

Without this app I would fail school due to not being able to afford a laptop until student loans hit.

M70%
by M####:

This is a great app but the biggest gripe I have is that autocorrect doesn't show up or work when I'm replying to someone in the messages.

Very helpful tool! Some glitches with switching classes, but overall pretty good!

Add push-notifications to direct relies on discussion boards and I'll give you a five

I just started a college that uses canvas as its platform. I absolutely love it so far. Four more semesters to go. We shall see.

School equals OK, but it's glitchy

R70%
by R####:

Would like to be able to land on page I left off upon re-opening of the app. Would also like the ability to resize text.

V70%
by V####:

This app definitely has made improvements, it runs very smoothly and I think it's great

M70%
by M####:

A little bit buggy but better than 99 percent of school apps

M70%
by M####:

Very easy to use, everything is right where you'd expect it to be just like on a computer.

Great app!!

Very nice and fluid

F70%
by F####:

Super handy

C70%
by C####:

Is it possible to give it zero stars! Because it's worth zero stars! I had answered all the questions but it said I had 3 unanswered questions and I looked at the whole quiz and they we're all checked. In the final results they appeared as unanswered, which caused me to lose points! Don't install, it'll cause you to fail points! I'm uninstalling!

U70%
by U####:

This app keeps me informed about what is going on in my classes. I love being able to read discussions on the fly and knowing where my grades stand. What o don't like is all the security crap I have to have on my phone because it interferes with the function of my phone.
