| 2024-11-14 |  | | There is a bug and I don't have any assignments on my calendar, but once I go to my to do list there are the assignments. I don't known why is doing this after 3 years of using canvas this is the first time something like this happen and It's getting very annoying... Maybe a setting that I'm missing and that's why this happening, but I don't really know since I never mess with the settings😪💀 |
| 2024-11-07 |  | | I have an android phone. The app is so difficult to stay logged into while using it. Just rotating my screen causes the app to log me out of my school's platform. The navigation is not user friendly and very finicky. The back arrow at the top of the screen seems like it is for navigating the pages, but it always takes me back to the login page. I get extremely frustrated each time I use this app. I do not recommend using. |
| 2024-11-05 |  | | I get logged out every now and then, but I am always able to get back in within a couple of days. I love when I get notifications when something new is posted in one of more courses and every time something is graded or a teacher sends an email. I recommend getting this app if you are constantly wanting to checking your grades and assignments like I am. |
| 2024-11-02 |  | | I like the app, but there are a few bugs and inconveniences that could be improved. The biggest one for me is the broken widgets. They never display anything even though the app shows grades, to-dos, etc. Id love the convenience of those widgets if they were working. The other big issue is the push notifications settings. I only see a white screen with an error message. The email notifications work properly, but I prefer push to email. |
| 2024-11-01 |  | | Great help for remembering things. I wish my highschool used it! I have had an issue with the widgets, the notifications one works fine, but grades and to-do are not showing anything. I don't know if I'm just using it wrong or what, but I thought I would put it out there. |
| 2024-11-01 |  | | App keeps telling me that I have a new annotation from my professor, but there are no new annotations to speak of. I've been getting these notifications for hours with no resolution other than disabling notifications for the app. When I go into the app to look at the current annotations, it allows me to look at one or two of them and then crashes. Sometimes it doesn't display the notifications at all before crashing. |
| 2024-10-24 |  | | I am forever locked out of this app I guess. This problem has been going on since 2020 based on the instructor help page. You change your password the app logs you out and will NOT recognize the new password you changed on a laptop. If you click forgot password it takes you to a page where you do that "I'm not a robot" test and then.... freezes. A problem that's been had for 4 years that hasn't been fixed? Ridiculous. |
| 2024-10-19 |  | | Great app overall. Just sometimes difficult to get the tools to work correctly when reading assignments and needing to provide annotations. I have to go into my browser for that because the app wont let you highlight or underline. kind of annoying but maybe it's something that should be addressed? I hope the developers see this |
| 2024-10-15 |  | | App is really good and laid out well for a mobile interface. There are some problems as I can't manage my notifications and as well it's really annoying how if I view notifications on my desktop it doesn't clear it for my mobile and theres not a mark as all read button and its annoying as I think I missed announcements when I've already read them |
| 2024-09-30 |  | | I've used Canvas for years. The website is great, the app is borderline useless. The UI is unusable and it's impossible to access anything without receiving the infinite loading screen of death. I use the app purely for push notifications, which only goes so far. An instructor posted an announcement? Cool. I can't read it. Gotta get the laptop. |
