  • (2025-07-30) This is great for students and would be great for other users like Admins except for the fact that the "Admin" menu option is not available when this plugin is turned on. I'd love to use it but can't because of this.
  • (2025-07-25) Probably one of the best extensions of all time. I never really liked how Canvas looked at all. It's always a plain, eye-burning theme and the only customization you really have is changing the card names and colors. But in 7th grade, I found about this extension through TikTok and instantly downloaded the extension. I was surprised by how much better Canvas turned out after playing with the settings. It had all the essentials along with much more customization open, allowing you to express more about yourself just by making a preset. I honestly can't wait for the new widgets update, keep it up!
  • (2025-07-18) Simple, beautiful, and actually motivating! I love BetterCanvas! It's such a clean and aesthetically pleasing feature that actually makes me want to stay organized and productive. Thanks for creating something that’s both useful and enjoyable to use!
  • (2025-07-12) Makes canvas way less overstimulating. Making the todo list color coded helpes me SO much to make sure thing get done on time!
  • (2025-07-07) I adore this extension. It helps my ADHD brain keep track of my assignments while making Canvas more visually interesting!
  • (2025-07-06) BetterCanvas is a powerful, feature-packed extension that enhances Canvas LMS usability, offering smoother navigation and extra tools for productivity.
  • (2025-06-28) As simple or as powerful as you want—very customizable. Canvas is such a carpy piece of software that it's unusable without this extension.
  • (2025-06-26) Can't use Canvas without this extension. Makes the UI look much better and has customizable features to make your own theme. I especially love the new update!
  • (2025-06-25) makes canvas look so much better and the creator is very responsive to feedback. a lot of quality of life features such as dark mode, themes for canvas, universal search bar, now even a to-do tracking list.
  • (2025-06-17) Simple, to the point, and really helpful. I love this extension! Especially the grades on dashboard feature
  • (2025-06-17) I've had this extension for maybe a couple years now, just the theme customizer makes me feel a little less depressed when I check canvas. Theme is bubblegum pink & plum purple :)
  • (2025-06-14) nothing seems to work at all
  • (2025-06-14) This is so cool! Now that they have a universal search bar, I cant lose track of my subject's!
  • (2025-06-13) I love being able to customize my canvas page! And the themes that are already designed are so cute.
  • (2025-06-11) I’ve been using the "Better Canvas" extension for math problems, and it’s been a real game-changer. The tool is easy to use, and the math-solving capabilities are impressive. It handles everything from simple equations to more complex calculations, which makes it a valuable resource for students, professionals, or anyone who needs quick, accurate solutions. The interface is straightforward and user-friendly, and it offers helpful steps for solving problems, which really enhances the learning experience. The ability to visualize certain equations and work through them step-by-step is a feature I didn’t realize I needed until I tried it. The reason it’s not a perfect 5 is that sometimes the tool could benefit from a bit more depth, like providing more detailed explanations or offering alternate solution methods. But overall, it’s an excellent extension for anyone looking to solve math problems quickly and efficiently. Highly recommend it for anyone in need of a reliable math-solving assistant!

  • (2025-05-15) The best part about BetterCanvas is the ease of use. I can make designs on the go and share them instantly. It’s efficient and loaded with design assets. A must-have for freelancers and small teams.
  • (2025-05-15) this is the best extension ever ,, it has great features and easy to use ,,, it has made my work vey easy
  • (2025-05-13) I love this extension. Works amazingly. Unfortunately, there has been a problem with the newest update: My sidebar text no longers displays itself. Maybe you could see into this issue. Hopefully this suggestion goes through. Thanks
  • (2025-05-13) Been using for many years, helps me never go overdue on an assignment.
  • (2025-05-12) doesnt work man
  • (2025-05-11) I love it so much. I just wish it would also show your to do list on the course page itself instead of the dashboard. When I have tasks for canvas on it overlaps, so I have to disable it in order to see one, and I don't really like having to go on the dashboard to see what is due every time.
  • (2025-05-09) I like the way it shows all of my grades on the dashboard.
  • (2025-05-09) Huge fan...I look forward to looking at my classes on canvas now. I wish I had this as a freshman. It's so fun and helpful to have! and its free!!!
  • (2025-05-08) This is the best extension I have ever used as well as come across! I have an issue where bright lights irritate my eyes and cause headaches, in fact every blue moon I'll get a migraine, but because of the dark mode I am able to work as long as I want!
  • (2025-05-08) 4.5 stars!! i wish some of the colors showed up better (sometimes text is hard to read) but other than that it makes me hate opening canvas less. so excited for the new update!!
  • (2025-05-06) makes doing school a little less dreadful :D
  • (2025-05-05) This extension makes life so much easier! As soon as I open Canvas, it lets me know how much and when my assignments are due without clicking on my course.
  • (2025-05-05) thanks george
  • (2025-05-04) Love it! The little additions go a long way
