How do I view Assignments in the Student app on my iOS device?
The Canvas Student app helps you keep track of all course assignments. You can also view newly created assignments or changes to assignments in the Notifications tab.
The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.
Notes:
- The Course Navigation menu matches the browser version of your Canvas course. If Assignments is not available in Course Navigation, it will also be hidden from view in the app.
- Although annotations are supported in the Canvas Student app, the Student Annotation Submissions assignment type is not currently supported for mobile devices.
Open Assignments
Tap the Assignments link.
Note: You may need to swipe your screen to view the Assignments link.
