This app is AWFUL and one of the worst ones out there. Google Classroom is way better than Canvas is multiple ways. I don’t even want to give Canvas one star.

it's a great app, love the UI and its so intuitive but there's an issue with the to do list notification system- its been showing that i have 18 or 19 things next to the icon for the to do list but when i check there's only 1 or 2 actual assignments
