Magic Marker - Canvas tool

[mary_gozzacohen]

Does the Canvas tool - Magic Marker - still exist? It seems like a really great tool and I can think of multiple uses for it!

Thanks,

Mary

There is still an entry for it in the Canvas Guides: MagicMarker iOS Guide - Table of Contents . Strangely, although it's for iOS, the documentation mentions Android.

When I go to download it from the Apple Store on my iPad, it shows up. It does not get good ratings or reviews. The most recent review from a year ago said that they couldn't get past the part about entering their school.

I just installed it and encountered the same thing as the last reviewer -- after putting in my school. It just sat there with a black screen with no option but to cancel. That may be because we use a single sign on and it only supports the standard Canvas login screen. On the other hand, I know that I tried it many years ago so I know it worked at least at that point.

I would say "don't get your hopes up."
