Our middle school is having issues with students editing the course nicknames to be mean and inappropriate words/emojis. Students are using iPads and the Canvas OS app. One of our Canvas admins found a way to edit the Theme and prevent nicknames from being changed but that is only working if using Canvas through a web browser. On a web browser this got rid of the 3 dots in the corner of the course card on the dashboard so nicknames couldn't be edited. However this did not apply to the app. In the app, the 3 dots still appear in the corner of the course card and a student can change the course nickname. The admin who made the original edit said he couldn't find any settings to control the Theme in the app.
Is is possible to prevent students from changing the course nickname in the Canvas app?
