How do I enter a website URL as an assignment submission in the Student app on my iOS device?
You can enter a website URL as an assignment submission from your iOS device. Once you submit your assignment, you can verify your assignment submission. You can also resubmit assignments if your instructor allows.
The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.
Notes:
- Your instructor may restrict certain assignment types, including URLs, so this option may not be available for your assignment submission.
- If enabled in the browser version of Canvas, you will see celebration animations when you submit an on-time assignment in the Student app.
