Hello! I am an instructor. I am trying to figure out how to upload an audio file that students will be able to download onto their phones. When I try to upload audio (I have used the Panopto recording option and also tried uploading a Quicktime audio file) you can only listen to the audio file *while* in Canvas. I want students to be able to download the file onto their phone so they can listen offline or listen on the go (how you might a podcast).
I saw this post, but this is about having it as an assignment: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Question-Forum/Allow-students-to-download-mp3-to-their-devices/m-...
I want these audio files to just be in pages.
I have the same question. I used the Upload/Record Media function to put the audio recording on my page, and would like to make the audio file downloadable.
