Canvas iOS - Viewing and Managing Course Files Using the Canvas iOS app.
You can view course and personal files with the Canvas app and if you are an instructor, you can manage files for your course.
The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.
