Canvas iOS - Viewing Conversation Messages in the Canvas iOS app.
Canvas lets you access your conversations on your mobile device so you can keep in touch with people in your course at any time.
The images shown in this document are taken from an iPhone but unless otherwise noted an iOS tablet will mirror the same steps.
Open Messages
In the Dashboard, tap the Messages icon.
View Conversations Messages
The Conversations folder displays all messages you have received and is organized the same way as the browser version of Conversations. Messages are arranged in chronological order—newer messages appear at the top, and older messages appear near the bottom. New messages are indicated with a blue dot.
Swipe the app from top to bottom to quickly refresh your messages.
View Mailbox Filters
You can view different types of messages. The default view is the Inbox [2], which shows all types of messages. If you only want to view messages you haven't read yet, tap the Unread button [2]. To view messages you've archived, tap the Archive button [3]. To view messages that have been sent, tap the Sent button [4]. Note that some filters may not apply to any messages.
Manage Conversations
To archive a message thread, swipe your finger across the message you want to archive. Then tap the Archive button.
Note: You can't delete messages in the Canvas app.
