This guide is for the mobile app for professors. There is a different guide and app for students here.

There are a number of differences between the Mobile and Web versions of Canvas. Although the view may be different on these two devices, the overall feel and content will still be the same.  There are some things that the Web version of Canvas that the Mobile version cannot do that will be outlined here. There are also some devices and versions that will not have the same access as others which will be identified.
