We had setup a course using Canvas Free For Teachers. Some of our students registered using the Google Sign-In. However by doing so, they are not required to enter a password. How can they login when using mobile devices? The Google sign-in option does not seem to work for mobile devices. Are there any possible alternatives? Thanks.
Hi Timothy ~
Have you looked at the new QR code option? Would that be an option for your students?
How do I view a QR code to log in to the Canvas mobile apps as a student?
If they can log in through a browser, this may simplify the process. I haven't tried it with Google SSO, but I hope it works for you.
