Your week at Canvas, without the noise. The official Canvas app shows everything; Coursework shows what matters right now — what's due, what's done, and how close you are to finishing. Sign in with your school's Canvas account and your coursework lands in a clean, fast planner. What you get: • Tasks — this week's assignments grouped by day, with course-colored progress rings. Check something off and it syncs back to Canvas, so you stay in step with the official app. • Courses & grades — every active course, its grade, and the details, in one tap. • Calendar — a month view of what's due, with per-day breakdowns. • Reminders — assignment alerts and optional morning and evening digests, with per-course muting. All scheduled on-device. • Home-screen widget — your per-course progress rings at a glance. • Submit — attach a photo or file to turn in an assignment without leaving the app. Private by design. Coursework has no accounts of its own, no analytics, and no tracking. It talks only to your school's Canvas server, using a token you control and can revoke any time. Your data stays on your device. Coursework is an independent app and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Instructure, Inc. or Canvas.
