Customize your online classroom environment
Better Canvas is a free browser add-on designed for users of the Canvas learning management system. It offers a range of customization options that enhance both functionality and aesthetics. This Chrome extension primarily benefits anyone who regularly uses Canvas and seeks a more personalized and efficient experience.
Better Canvas addresses common limitations of Canvas by providing a variety of visual enhancements. Moreover, by offering a highly customizable dark mode, advanced card customization, and enhanced tools like a better to-do list and GPA calculator, the extension improves visual appeal and significantly boosts productivity.
Tailored themes for a unique look
Better Canvas offers a wide range of customization options. Users can personalize the dark mode by choosing from ready-made options or manually editing their own. It also offers automatic scheduling for dark mode, making it easy to transition between light and dark themes. Additionally, the extension provides a variety of user-created themes, ensuring that you'll find something that suits your taste no matter your aesthetic.

The built-in GPA calculator helps you stay on top of your grades and even calculate potential outcomes.
This extension allows users to personalize their Canvas experience to a significant degree. However, this extensive customization comes with a learning curve, as it can take some time to figure out how to adjust and optimize the various elements to your liking. Additionally, while the extension supports custom fonts, not all fonts are recognized, which might limit your ability to customize the appearance of your dashboard fully.
Create a more engaging learning interface
Better Canvas is a valuable tool for anyone looking to enhance their Canvas experience through extensive personalization. It significantly improves the platform's functionality and appearance, making it more user-friendly and visually appealing. While there is a learning curve and some limitations with font recognition, the overall benefits of increased productivity and personalization make it a worthwhile addition for Canvas users.
