Once you have completed your registration for a catalog course or listing, you have access to an account within Canvas. You can link to your Canvas account from your catalog dashboard at any time. Your Canvas account provides an overview of your course(s).

You can set notification preferences in the Canvas app to receive updates about your Canvas courses. Selected updates are push notifications, meaning notifications are sent to you even if you have not opened the Canvas app. You can choose to set notifications for specific contact methods, or you can set notifications for all devices.

Contact methods in the Canvas app are the same methods added to your Profile and User Settings in the browser version of Canvas.

The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.

Note: Because mobile notifications are currently limited, mobile preferences override preferences in the browser version of Canvas. Additionally, daily and weekly notifications are not currently available in the app.

You can set reminders through the Courses page or the Week page. You can choose the date and time that you would like to receive the reminder. Reminders are sent as push notifications to your device.
