How do I take a New Quizzes assessment in the Canvas app on my Android device?
You can take a New Quizzes assessment on your mobile device. New Quizzes assessments are accessed from the Assignments page. If you cannot find your assessment on the Assignments page, you may need to access a quiz from the Quizzes page.
