Quizzes are a cornerstone of effective learning, providing valuable opportunities for knowledge assessment and skill-building. We’ve heard your
feedback and are committed to making quizzes easier and more intuitive to access.
That’s why we’re thrilled to announce Improved Support for New Quizzes in our Canvas Mobile apps.
This enhancement simplifies navigation, provides clearer information, and ensures a seamless user experience for both learners and instructors.

What’s New?

We’ve made significant improvements to how New Quizzes are accessed and displayed, including:

• Simplified Navigation: Reduced steps to reach quizzes, ensuring users can focus on learning without unnecessary distractions.
• Clearer Labeling: Navigation labels have been revamped to reduce churn and improve understanding at each step of the process.
• Consistent Icons: Standardized icon usage across the app for a polished and intuitive interface.
• Extended Quiz Details: Users can now see additional information, such as the total number of questions, making it easier to prepare for quizzes.

These updates have been applied across key screens, including:

• Modules
• Assignments
• Grades
• To-Do
• People Details
• Submission Details (including the Comments sheet)
• Quizzes (no longer displaying incorrect "0 Questions" for Quiz)

Why We’re Committed to This Initiative

Previously, quizzes were displayed as a third-party, external tool (LTI), leading to confusion and a disjointed experience for users.
This setup often disrupted the flow for both learners and instructors, creating friction in what should be a smooth process.
We reduced the steps of accessing the Quiz, and removed misleading information.

With this update, we’ve addressed these issues head-on by integrating New Quizzes more seamlessly into the app.
The result? A consistent and frustration-free experience for everyone involved.

Your feedback drives everything we do, and we’re here to continually improve your experience with the app.
Improved Support for New Quizzes is just one of the many ways we’re making learning and teaching seamless and effective. 

Stay tuned for more updates—we can’t wait to show you what’s next!
