Overview
This article explains how Continuing Education students can access UWF Continuing Education eLearning courses from their iPhone or Android smartphones. Continuing Education students cannot access the mobile version of eLearning the same way as traditional UWF students.
Instructions
Step 1: Install the app
Download the Canvas Student app by Instructure Inc. on your smartphone (iPhone: Apple's App Store; Android: Google Play Store).
Step 2: Change to "Canvas Login" mode

If you double-tap too many times, you will have to keep double-tapping until you see the correct phrase appear (Canvas Login, or Canvas_Login: ON).
Step 3: Find UWF
Click the blue button that says "Find my school." Type "uwf" and select University of West Florida from the search results.
Step 4: Log in
