Canvas has a new mobile app for parents (iOS and Android). Parents don't need any special instructions or special password to enroll. They use their child's actual Canvas login information to connect to them via the app. 

Here is some information that should be helpful. There are resources to answer most any question you may have: 

• How to connect with your student using the Canvas Parent mobile app.

• Mobile Guides - Canvas Parent
