How do I view the Inbox in the Canvas Teacher app on my Apple device?

Open Inbox

Open Messages

In the Dashboard, tap the Inbox icon [1]. If the inbox icon includes a numbered badge, the badge shows how many unread Conversations messages you have in your Inbox.

View Inbox

View Conversations Messages

The Inbox defaults to the All tab and displays all your messages. The layout is the same way as the browser version of Conversations. Messages are arranged in chronological order—newer messages appear at the top, and older messages appear near the bottom. New messages are indicated with a dot that aligns with the course color.

Swipe the app from top to bottom to quickly refresh your messages.

You can view different types of messages in the Inbox:

Unread [1]: Messages that are unread in the Inbox

Sent [3]: Messages that you've sent (you cannot view messages sent to others in any other tab until you receive a reply)

Archived [4]: Messages that have been archived

Note: Messages cannot be archived in the Teacher app.
