Comments on Canvas Parent for Android

★★★★★ Van Thai · Feb 6, 2025
A "must have" app if you have a child in school using Canvas for all of their classes & assignments.
★★★★☆ J R · Feb 4, 2026
App is essential for school however I'm giving 4 stars because the calendar doesn't always load which forces you to then find another device to sign in on to check courses.
★★★★★ Aparna Ram-Chintalapudi · Sep 4, 2025
Easy to use, view and navigate. Helps me keep track of my kid's grades and the accountability is great for both her and for me.
★★★★★ Crystalaura Gunter · Mar 31, 2026
This app is super helpful when teachers are on top of data entering
★☆☆☆☆ Jesus Torres · Jan 7, 2025
Alerts don't work. Says error. You need to manually check every class/assignment to see if they have a new one, have been submitted, and grade received. Last semester 100+ alerts came through last week of school at same time. One student alerts work and not calendar, other students' calendar works but not alerts. 🤯 Hopefully problem gets fixed. Have submitted multiple requests.
★☆☆☆☆ Antoaneta Stanojevic · Apr 10, 2025
I didn't think the app could get any worse.....but it did! There is no grouping for summative vs. formative assignments, nothing is organized chronology. It is truly confusing to understand what is driving the latest change to the grade.

• Set reminders for assignments
• View assignment grades
• View course grades
• Set grade alerts
• View course announcements

Important: This mobile app is only usable by parents whose children attend schools that have enabled Canvas Parent.
