DP. How many are you? Seems there is one obnoxious lady who, for some reason, want to disregard quite a few people's issue on this board.

In Canvas Parent, it only shows one of my students, but my Inbox only shows messages from my OTHER student. And those messages are undeletable messages going back 5 years!

Still does not work

It's also incredibly slow, and there is no bulk way to clear out dozens of notifications from past years, and no way remove the modules from stuck classes from past year's at different schools!

MCPS has disabled the Pair with Observer feature.

The instructions don't work.

Has anyone here set up a parent account on either Canvas Parent or Canvas Student, and is able to see more than one student in their parent account?

I was already using Canvas student app. It too is blank. If I log online with students credentials I can see things.

For my kids, the "Pair with Observer' button doesn't exist.

One of my kids was already magically added to my parent account, but the other wasn't.

So, the end result is:

Have to log in as kid to see kid's data.

Canvas is a miserable failure.

Now I understand why the teachers are unable to manage student documents and communicate effectively.

We're supposed to use the red Canvas Student app, not the blue Canvas Parent app, for parent login?

See here

On the step that is missing a picture, scroll all the way down in Classroom to find the red Canvas button/link

When you finish, you'll be logged in to canvas as a parent, but if you use red Canvas student, your kid's saved logins will have been silently removed, so you'll need to log in as your kid again somewhere to get the QR code to add their info to your own account.

Yes, this process is insane.

No you can use either if you have credentials for both. It doesn't matter. They both work fine.

It’s not your child’s login, read the instructions. It’s the student app with parent credentials. The instructions are written out for you within parent vue.

Good for you, but I don't want to use my child's login info to use Canvas.
