How do I set a profile picture in the Teacher app on my iOS device?

If your institution allows profile pictures, you can add a profile picture in the Student app.

The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.

Notes:

Changing your profile picture in the app will also change the profile picture in your browser version of Canvas.
If you cannot add a profile picture, your institution has restricted this feature.

Open User Menu

On the Dashboard, tap the Menu icon.

Tap your profile picture.

To take a new photo, tap the Take Photo link [1]. To choose a photo from your device, tap the Choose Photo link [2].

To take a photo, tap the Camera button.

If you want to re-take the photo, tap the Retake link [1]. Otherwise tap the Use Photo link [2].

To choose a photo, locate the photo on your device.

Move and scale your photo so it fits within the picture parameters [1]. Then tap the Choose link [2].
