About Taking a Quiz

You can take a quiz through your student app. Some features and quiz settings are not supported in the mobile app. If your quiz includes features or questions types that are not supported, you will be asked to log in to Canvas, and you will be redirected to the browser view.

Accessing and Starting a Quiz

1. 1. Choose either the "Modules" or "Quizzes" tab in the course menu.
  2. Locate and select a quiz.
  3. Click the "Take Quiz" button to begin the quiz.

"New Quiz" quizzes cannot be taken on the Student App. To take a "New Quiz," click on "Launch External Tool" to open the quiz in your mobile browser.

Some features within the Student App vary by version and device. This demo has been done on an iPad (iOS) tablet. Check the Canvas Mobile Guides for device specific details.
