How do I create a discussion in the Student app on my iOS device?
You can create new discussions using the Canvas Student app.
The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.
Note: Creating a discussion is a course permission. If you cannot create a new discussion, this feature has been disabled in your course.
Create Discussion

Create a title for your discussion in the Title field [1]. Enter the details of your discussion in the Description field [2]. To format your description, add links, or upload an image, use the Rich Context Editor [3].
If you want to allow your discussion to be a threaded discussion, tap the Allow threaded replies toggle button [4]. You can also add an attachment to your discussion with the Attachment icon [5]. When you are finished, tap the Done link [6].
