Missing Widget Canvas Student App

[BrendaWinslow]

The Canvas Student App widget does not appear in the widget listing for me to select. My iPhone 12 Pro Max is on iOS version 15.6.1. I have removed the app & re-added it numerous times. It may be helpful to know that the widget was there & was active in May before I removed it in June. I have no issues utilizing the actual app. My active courses are set as favorites. What else can I check or do to get the widget to appear??? Thank you!

Hi @BrendaWinslow -

There was a recent update to the Canvas Student app. v6.17 is the most current version. Which version do you have installed on your phone?

[BrendaWinslow]

Hello @KristinL, Canvas v16.7 is the version I have installed.

@KristinLI noticed the plus at the top of my screen when editing the widgets. It has Student listed, but only Announcements are showing on my widget screen. How do I add my Grades? Previously both showed up by adding the one widget. Issue is now partially solved.

Just to make sure, do you not see the grades when you swipe all the way over? 

[BrendaWinslow]

That is correct. My announcements will populate, but they do not refresh. They stay until the next one arrives so it always looks like there is a new announcement.
