You should be aware of the following differences between the mobile app and web versions of Canvas:

  • Quizzes. While the app does support quiz response submission, not all question types can be viewed in the app. For unsupported questions, you'll be directed to log in via the browser, so you may find it simpler to use a computer instead of a mobile device when submitting quiz responses.
  • Assignments. The assignment submission process requires you to first save your work in a third-party app such as Google Drive and then choose that third-party app when submitting the assignment.
  • TurnItIn. TurnItIn assignments cannot be submitted via the app; you must log into Canvas on a computer to submit TurnItIn assignments.

Contact Canvas support with any questions about the app.
