You can access Canvas from your phones by downloading the Canvas Student App for iOS or Android. If you are using a phone or tablet to access Canvas, it is highly recommended that you download and use the App, instead of using the browser application on your tablet or mobile device, as this can cause issues.
To log in, launch the app, tap "Find my school" and enter Guilford College. Tap "Guilford College" and enter your network username and password. Tap "Login."
For more information about using the Canvas App, visit the Canvas Mobile Guide site and select the correct operating system for your mobile device.
Please note that the App does not provide the full functionality of Canvas accessed from a computer browser: there may be some features that are more limited or unavailable when using the App.
Canvas supports the last two versions of every browser release. We highly recommend updating to the newest version of whatever browser you are using as well as the most up-to-date Flash plug-in (Best Browsers for Canvas).
