How do I view Modules in the Student app on my iOS device?
The Canvas Student app gives you access to Modules in your courses.
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 Modules is not available in Course Navigation, it will also be hidden from view in the app.
- If your instructor includes a file in Modules, you may use the same PDF annotations as submitting a PDF assignment.

Notes:
