[Canvas Mobile - Parent] Align Grades on Web and Mobile App

Problem statement:

When students and parents view their grades on the web, it indicates whether a quiz has been graded or still has some questions to be graded. It does not count that ungraded quiz in the total points for a student's grade. On the Canvas Parent app, it does display the score a student has thus far earned on a quiz even if grading has not been completed. A parent would not know that their student's quiz needs to be graded still, displays the score they have thus far on the quiz (for auto-graded questions), and that score impacts a student's grade.

Proposed solution:

I would propose that the Canvas Parent mobile app display that a quiz has not been completely graded yet. Points earned, percentages, and overall grades should display to a parent the same whether they access through the web or app.

Here is an example. Looking at the left, you can see the Practice: Gravitation Review quiz is displaying as a 1.5/2 and the "Assignments" assignment group is out of 5 points available. This quiz is showing up as an Assignment (another issue) and does not indicate that grading still needs to occur. 

On the right, the web view displays the rocket ship icon to show that grading is still needed. The total points for the "Assignments" assignment group is out of 3 points. If this were a more heavily weighted quiz, this point discrepancy would display a much bigger overall course grade between the Parent app and the web.
