I have been trying to use the coding feature on canvas to create tabs, drop down buttons, etc. But I have been having an issue with these not showing up in the app, though they still show up for students in a browser. Is there a way to ensure that coding will show up in the app as well? Or should I just forget that aspect of canvas and just do the basic stuff? My students will all be getting iPads this coming year, so I'm assuming they'll all be using the app instead of a browser. Thanks!

The Canvas Mobile apps do support styling but requires its own mobile CSS uploaded through the Canvas admin, which is explained here:

I will caution that the CSS you use for the web can't be added directly. You will need to do some work to get more complicated styles to work in the Canvas Mobile app.
